Default all guages have false readings

hi,
i have a stock 95 civic and the speedometer, gas gauge and temperature gauge read wrong. they always fluctuate but the worst one is the speedometer. it goes from 0 to 120 in split seconds or just stays at 0 or stays at 90 when im doing 40. the gas one fluctuates alot too. temperature not too bad but it hits high low, high low, etc etc.
What do you guys think is wrong??

Much help appreciated

Is the CEL ON?

I'd pop the cluster out and check the condition of the connectors (tight and clean?).

Also check whether fuse 15 under the dash is loose or corroded.

I had a problem like this a couple months ago (completely separate from the problem I was talking about in the thread I made earlier today in the tech section).

I unplugged the cluster and plugged it back in and I haven't experienced the problem since.
