Description of the problem	My jeep lost all power to the console/dash during night driving and i could not measure my speed, rpms, fuel or any other gauges. This included both the analog (needle) and digital (led) gauges. My 5-speed drove fine though, no sweat. So there i was, driving down the road, and i had no way to ascertain my velocity. There was no way to tell if i was going 20 mph or 120 mph. It was just me, my jeep and my gut instincts. So, i pulled a fonzie and smacked the dash, and gave it my best "heyyyyyyyy" and you guessed it - after that all was well. The lights came back and i was doing a cool 60. Because i can't drive 55. After a little internet wizardry on my favorite search engine, apparently this is simply a loose connection from the dash ground. Being a jeep owner, i simply replaced the faulty screw and didn't waste my time taking it to a dealer or whining about it online. Oh wait... I'm actually only reporting this problem because i wanted to validate the nhtsa complaint process. Looks like it is working. Hey v!
