very new to this so please excuse if posted in wrong place.

Got a late '95 2.4l diesel caravelle and the fuel gague and water temp dont work 'correctly' and sometimes not at all.

To get it to work ( which then mostly gives an incorrect reading) you have to bang the top of the dash.

am told its a little chip in behind the gagues (dioid or somethin??) that doesnt make contact or has a loose connection.

Can anyone confirm this or tell me a little about it and whats required to fix???
(in the hope of avoiding paying a mechanic having to remove to check)

thanks in advance
