ELECTRICAL ISSUES
Advice appreciated. 1968 GTO with factory gauges. When turn signal is on, oil pressure and water temp gauge needles flicker with the blinking of flasher?
Thanks in advance. |

I ask this because converting warning lights to gauges requires a couple of changes to the wiring harness. |

Easy fix, just drive like 99% of the population and don’t use turn signals! Haha sorry but you left the door open for that joke

It is a ground issue but I find some cars will still have the gauges bounce (and shift when lights are on) even if you have good cluster case grounding, maybe also a ground problem in the printed circuit itself or even the gauges themself.
