I have a weird electrical issue that is going on and I am looking for some help. PT was runnin fine. Turned it off, came out 30 minutes later and turned the key and nothing. Here is where it gets weird. As soon as you turn the key to off and remove it, the speedo needle, tach needle, in fact almost all of the needles jump in unison for about 15 to 20 seconds and then they stop. This keeps happening everytime I try it. Anyone heard of anything like this?

Although I got no responses, I just wanted to let people know it was just a bad battery. I would have never guessed a bad battery would give symptoms like that. So much for my red top optima.

Thanks for being so considerate as to let us know.
Most of the warm weather folks were probably busy at shows this weekend, like me.
