alright, i got a '98 eclipse gsx that is shutting off in the middle of driving and a dead gauge cluster that works only when it's at 3k rpm and with that, chokes at 3.5k rpms. also, some lights on the cluster (i.e. srs) will come on and off in what seems to be minute intervals...what could be the problem?

it's a mitsu and they have horrible wiring issues. other than that I would try looking at the alternator might have a short

I think the problem is that you bought a Eclipse in the first place ha!

lol coming from the guy with 10 posts and a bseries on a dseries forum :hammer:

but honestly if its anything like my friends 95 talon, it has hella wiring problems.

coil pack? resistor? could be a number of things...

Ignition switch? Faulty grounds? Loose plugs? Inspect the engine bay in the dark of night, with the engine running, and look for any arcing. Try wiggling plugs and shaking wire bundles. Cheap and easy to do.

noob...

will try that night arc thing when it gets a tad warmer here in MN. -had a feeling it was loose plugs or fried harness, in either case i still hate mitsubishi crap.

I'm thinking a ground problem, I had a 97 gsx myself...

I had a 00 eclipse and it had major wiring problems my whole cluster went out once

 

[shocker911]

my friend has a 00' eclipse and the wireing on that thing was such a pain in the ass. his entire dash went down then came back up then went down ended up bein the dizzy or the alternator cant remember

i refuse to fuck with them wiring problems get so bad on those cars. i just take it somewhere else. because i will be a nut case by the time i get everything fixed.
