Ford windstar speedo going crazy?

[koda6966]

Every once in a while the speedo on the windstar will stay stuck at 0, random speeds its at, or today go completely crazy and pop up 100mph when it's really only going 55-60. It doesn't last long, a minute or two at the most.

Any ideas?

Poltergeist?

That's what my mother thinks. Not even kidding. The Super 8 Motel in town is also haunted, according to my sister who works there. Bibles keep disappearing only in one room where no one stays, and the door pops open when the building is empty and it's locked.

There is also a strange room number that keeps calling the office. There is no room with that number.

Anyways I was going to look into swapping gauges and seeing if that works. But just in case I'm looking for input here.

Does the cruise work? Shifting funny?

Call Ghost Hunters about the motel.

I was thinking about calling TAPS. They do half way decent work. But yeah, the cruise works fine and it shifts fine.

What year is the windstar

I believe it is a 1999.

The gauges in my ranger acted funny like that when the battery was dieing on me.

I didn't figure it out until it did die on me, replaced battery and it stopped.
