It’s probably something small and dumb. Someone probably missed a ground during the swap or something, next time you’re driving see if you can tell when the gauges cut out, if it’s related to going over a bump, or when you hit the brakes hard, etc etc. ---

No one listens to me, if you’d have held off for a stock, minty one you’d never have a problem. Honestly this one probably isn’t bad by any means though, just needs a little TLC. ---
