    Irratic temp guage

    Whats up E30 fam... having an issue with temp gauge. When i start my car i have to tap it to work. And when it does its very irratic. I have already changed the coolant temp sensor. Have not changed the batteries in the cluster. Thoughts? Tried shaking the wires from the temp sensor and had a friend look at the gauge and no movement.

    Check the nut on temperature gauge. Maybe loose. Try to tight with M7 socket.
