Those with SSE/SSEi Gauges...
Does your info center blink on and off depending on temperature changes? On mine, the car and odometer dissapear and only the windshield is left on the display. and then it comes back. It'* never out for long, Is there a fix for this?

I'd pull the cluster, clean and reconnect all connections to it. If that doesn't work, pull it again and check all the connections between the layers of the cluster VERY carefully.

Mine doesn't do that at all.
My old '89 Continental (aka:POS) had the digital dash. Every time it was colder than say 15^ it went flaky. It would turn on with the car and then fairly quickly turn off. After the heater in the car started to kick in and warm everything up it would come back on and stay on...weird.

I had that problem too, but only on my '92, not on my '93. On my 92, it only affected the driver info display but not the compass or gages or lighting. When it acted up, the FL driver info display would flicker and show only parts of the car outline, no odometer numbers or anything else, until the car warmed up. It was annoying to say the least...if a warning/error were to occur while the display was malfunctioning, the driver would never know it.
I pulled the cluster and reconnected it and the problem has been gone for the last few years, with the exception of maybe once or twice in the last 6 months.
If it happens again, rather than removing the cluster again I think I'll just try to reach up under the dash and press the connector on the back without removing anything...it'* worth a try.
