Speedometer Needle Jumping?
Hey,

Just wanted to know if any of you guys ever noticed the Speedo needle jumping after the truck is cut off. I have noticed this several times.
Does it mean thats somethings wrong or is it normal.
Thanks,
BM

I noticed that on my 04 and just thought it was another problem with my lemon, but my 06 also does it. The gauges are probably being calibrated.

My 05 does it too....about 20 seconds after i turn the ingnition off. Asked the dealer about and they said they never seen one do that and didn't want to look into to it to see what causes it.

Isn't it comforting when the dealer stands behind what they sell?
