Anybody know where I should start looking or if this is a problem you have hear of?
I have a 1998 contour LX,V6,Auto. When I was driving the other day the spedometer stopped working and at the same time the gas light with the arrow (I think this is the gas cap indicator) come on. That time it started wirking again about ten seconds later the light came on again and the spedo started to work. yesterday the same thing happened only the spedo quit untill this morning it started back up on the way to work but then quit about a minuite latter. everytime it stops or starts the gas light will come on for a few seconds.
other wise car drives fine. crazy problem whats with the light? Is this a wireing problem and are the two linked somehow?

Thanks
