whys my caldina doing this?

Postby doin donuts » Sat Mar 13, 2010 12:14 am

hey all, my wife has a '99 gtt caldina, the other day i was driving and all of a sudden the tripometer changed from the digital numbers it has to 90degree right angles and horizontal lines, rev gauge went right up, gearbox symbol showed up,VSC flashed up and speedo shot right up, i was doing maybe 35kph in traffic and got a pic.

now its not the first time its done it either, just buzzed me out. any ideas or happened to anyone else?

here is the pic.....

keep in mind as i said i was in traffic so speedo and revs were WAY off

Possibly a variation of the usual Caldina cluster problem

Are you sure you didnt hit 88mp/h and have a flux capacitor in the rear somewhere?
