Unhappy intermittent guages

2005 F350 Diesel - Gauges only work when engine is cold - engine and cab warms up and I lose all gauges but gauge lights still work - if I am coasting downhill and open windows and turn off cab heat they return but once I close windows and turn on cab heat they die again - on a cold day if I start with windows down and cab heat off, they last a lot longer til they fail - any ideas?

Trink,

It is a little odd they they work when cold but not when hot (it's usually the opposite), but intermittent failures on those instrument clusters is very common. There is a high likelihood that the problem is with the cluster itself. We would love the opportunity to help you out and get your truck working normally again. Feel free to call us at 800-547-2049 or you can go to our website to place an order as well: https://circuitboardmedics.com/ford-...luster-repair/. Please let me know if you have any questions.
