So i have a 92 coupe with a hud and digital cluster. So when i start driving it everything works all the lights on the cluster at night works, digital speed, and the hud. But after a while everything turns off. The hole cluster lights turn off,hud and my odo and trip stop rolling.Only things that work are the leds like for when i open the door,CEL,no seat belt, but everything else on my clusters goes off.If i hit the dash on top of the cluster everything comes back on, but then i hit a bump and everything goes off again.Has anyone fixed this kind of problem? Any experiences i have replaced the white square box that's by the fuses, but i dont think that's the problem. any suggestions, experiences, i want to know how fast im going and the cluster lights to light up.
Thanks

How much has your car been screwed with? Has the dash and gauges been messed with before. Hopefully it's something simple like one of the 3 harnesses on back being loose. Pull it and see.

Well previous owner did an auto to manual conversation. Doesn't have any aftermarket gauges. Im gonna pull it soon when I get my leds to install them on my cluster, thats when ill see what's going on. I saw somewhere some Guy re solder something on the back of the cluster, but can't find the link anymore. Any other tips, suggestions appreciated.
