Jumping Gauges

[iamsodamnconfused]

Hey, does anyone have any problem with their gauges jumping from left, to right, then back to left when the car is first started? I've had this car for 2 years, and I just noticed that it does this. I just wanna know if this is normal or not. Oh yeah, its a 99 GASE.

This is a common problem. I had a 99 that did this once started the problem went away. It can indicate a problem with the BCM or the trans speed sensor. As long as they settle down once the car is running don't worry about it at this point.

Oh yeah, I guess I should should add that the speedo will not go all the way to 0 MPH, its stuck at 3-4MPH, but it will go to 0 once the car is shut off. Bad cluster maybe?

Always a possiblilty. They do go bad from time to time especially the circuit board. You can get one from a wrecking yard and change it yourself for a few dollars.
