Weird gauge problems
Here's a weird problem I've been having the last few days. Whenever I start my truck, the speedometer and tachometer peg-out. It's similar to when you start the truck after the battery has been disconnected. Also, when it did this the first time, the "theft" light flashed rapidly after the truck started. When that happened, I turned the truck off, and re-started it, which stopped the light from flashing. I'm just wondering if there might be something wrong with the computer.
BTW, I've only noticed this happening since it's been colder out, around 30 degrees or so.
