Switch gremlin?

[yamadawg]

Yesterday, right after pulling out into traffic, I glanced down and noticed that I had no speedometer reading or odometer visible on the dash of my '03 RSMV. I reached down and wiggled the key and everything came back on. The trip home was around 120 miles and this happened a couple more times. Each time I was moving on down the road and do not know if the headlights and such were working, just that speedometer area was not. Has anyone else experienced this, and if so what can be done to fix it?

 

Thanks!

It is not at all uncommon for the ignition switches to fail. About the only real solution is to replace it with a new one.

Thank you Sir! That is what I was afraid of, but I was hoping to hear that I could squirt a little contact cleaner in a hole on the bottom of the switch and all would be magically restored...
