Car has been asleep for hours...........gauges both every second or so click with slight movements, used to be only when wake up, have swapped another cluster and does the same thing............

Really could use some help here, been fighting this phenomenon for months now, replaced alternator, battery is new, power issues first suspects have all been cleared so what now???

 

Maybe its having a bad dream...just kidding. I have no idea why it would be doing that.

 

some kind of grounding issue??

 

You should change your cluster.

 

He said that he already swapped cluster with no change in behavior.

 

Yes, I did but that being said, all I did was plug it in and never did turn the key on or attempted to do anything else with it.

 

damn I was expecting some ghost jumping in front of the camera

 

Did you name your E60 Christine? I haven't seen a cluster do that.

 

Electrical issue for sure.... I've seen it on Jeep Liberty, but that one had bad speed sensor.

 

Been thinking something like that as well but then there should be an error message(fault code) to that effect I would think..........
