Gauges in my 95' Neon sometimes work and sometimes don't?

What could be the problem? It's the regular gauge's for gas, mph, etc.

you have a 95 Neon and it still drives?

you need to check the ground for the dash instruments on it,those on some of those cars had a tendency to loose ground and that would cause this too happen to them,there's also a circuit board on the back that can get damaged and cause this,and sometimes the plug that all this plugs in to will loose connection and cause it,if you can hit on the dash lightly and make them work again that's a sign it may be a bad ground wire on it,or sometime hitting a small bump in the road will make them work and then stop working,that all leads back to a bad ground wire,good luck with it.
Reply:The dash is really an electronic display. Well, a collection of electronic displays which share one thing, a common ground. Most everything in the dash is nonconductive plastic, unlike cars of yesteryear which had steel as the mounting for everything and served as the ground for everything. So, there is a thing, a grounding strap which connects the common terminals of each display device to the negative side of the battery, which is also the metal body parts of the car. You appear to have an intermittent in the ground side which when it goes to open circuit, kills several devices at the same time. Some vehicles have a large printed circuit board instead of actual wires which will act like this if it gets cracked. Also, there are screws which hold everything together and sometimes these screws are also electrical connections and if they come loose will cause an intermittent. Try turning things on and gently wiggle the wires under the dash while someone else observes what happens. If it goes intermittent while you manipulate the wires, you may be able to isolate which wire is the cause of the problem and only then can you fix it. You can't find an intermittent until it fails completely or you can isolate the one wire or connection which can reliably repeat the failure on demand when you wiggle that one wire.
