325 Coupe - My speedo, fuel gauge, fuel consumption swingometer don't work, but the tacho, temp gauge do.  I've swapped 2 other sets of clocks in and they have the same problem.  I'm guessing 1 of 2 problems.

1 - There's a short and every time I put a new set of instruments in it blows them in the same way.

2 - There's a loom or sender problem, so no signals are getting through.

Any thoughts welcome

Cheers

Ed

Have a problem on my M3 E36 with erratic gauges, they work but after a while the go crazy then go dead and come alive again. Still have not resolved this problem but will get BMW to check it out. Found this link but for an E30 though.
