| Description of the problem | While driving at highway speed, the radio abruptly shut off with a loud pop at the same time the dashboard cluster ie: fuel, speedometer and temp gauge suddenly dropped and then came back up to there previous level. The odometer went blank as well and came on again. The car was still running but it was quite disconcerting to look at the dashboard and see all the gauges in the same position as if the car was off. Y wife has told me that it had happened previously but she could not recall the date. |
