Instrument Cluster Problem
I have a 2001 F150 (supercrew) with the 5.4L engine. It has about 83000 miles. Just recently, when I crank the truck, all of my gauges max out and then go back to zero and a few seconds later go to normal. Any ideas what this might be a symptom of?

I agree with him. I unhooked the battery on my Dad's truck to do some wiring and hooked it back up. When I first started the truck the gauges went all funky but then went back to normal. Only happened then. Not to worry.
