Whacky Dash Gauges

Yahoo Message Number: 34798
We have a new 08 Inspire Founders Edition, and took delivery at the factory on 9/21. Everything has been working great; our shakedown trip only came up with a few items. We've made our way to Colorado, and about 2 days ago, I noticed that the the 4 main gauges (fuel, volts, air front, and air rear), were intermittently not working. For example, the fuel gauge would be reading 3/4, then drop to zero. Each of the other gauges would do the same, sometimes at the same time. I'm seeing this occurring with the cruise control on. When I turned it off, and backed off on the accelerator, the gauges would go back to displaying properly. On the air pressure gauges, touching the brake would restore the gauge. I haven't noticed this happening when the cruise control was off, but I can't be sure. Has anyone experienced this before?

Yes....in another brand RV. Check for a loose or intermittent common ground connection...... perhaps a ground stud behind the instrument panel.

Sounds like a loose ground on the instrument cluster. That's where I would start. Good luck.
