temp gauge jumps when turn signal is on

    I have a '90 civic hatchback and the temp gauge jumps up and down when
    either turn signal is on. Also, it goes all the way up when my high
    beams are on. I was pretty sure this was a short somewhere, but it
    only happens after the car has been driven for a few minutes.
    Anyone else have this problem or have any input as to what is causing
    it?

    any help is appreciated

    My guess is a corroded solder terminal on the PCB boards allowing
    current jumping to another.

    Note: I*d tampered with the speedo and it did not work until I*d
    franticly diagnose it to improper screw tension adjustment. Don*t
    touch this area. A reminder: the whole unit costs around $500 US.

    I am referring to the instrument gauge.
