OK NOW I GOT IT FIGURED OUT---I MISSED SOMETHING IN THERE--DISREGARD THE IAC THING---GRANDMONSTERS HAVE MOVED MY WIRELESS KEYBOARD RECEIVER AND THIS THING HAS BEEN SKIPPING AROUND.
AGAIN, I COULDA GOT RID OF MY MISTAKE W/ "EDIT" (OR MY WHOLE ANSWER, AND SAVED FACE!)
JUST FOR ADDED INFO TO WHAT YOU GOT GOING ON (JUST IDEAS)--SEE MY ADDITIONS IN THIS POST---AND WHAT I COPIED AND PASTED FROM ANOTHER

PASTE
SEEN THIS BEFORE!
SOMETIMES YOUR GAUGES SORTA GO HAYWIRE
MOST LIKELY---BATTERY DYING/ THEN DEAD
ALTERNATOR/ BATTERY FAILURE/ SOMETHING IN THE SYSTEM FAILURE (IT WAS THE ALTERNATOR, IN THE CASE I DEALT WITH)
UN-JEWG THE BATTERY COMPLETELY FROM YOUR RIG (REMOVE BOTH CABLES FOR ALL YA'LL YANKEE TYPES!)
COMPUTER WILL RESET
CHARGE OLD BATTERY/ REPLACE OLD BATTERY, WHICH EVER WORKS BEST...BEFORE RE-INSTALLED
JUMP STARTING MAY MAKE YOU "GO", BUT THE PROBLEMS PERSIST
...........THE COMPUTER AIN'T BEEN RESET, TILL YOU UN-JEWG AND RE-INSTALL "FRESH" BATTERY (SOME 'ROUND HERE SAY, "BAT-STREE"!)
ONCE UNDERWAY---CHECK SYSTEM FOR, "NOT CHARGING" (FOR WHATEVER OF MANY REASONS!).....WE CAN OFFER IDEAS
OR MAYBE IT'S JUST A "RUN DOWN GOOD BATTERY" (LIGHTS LEFT ON, ETC) OR JUST A PLAIN OLE BAD BATTERY.........EVEN BRAND NEW STUFF CAN BE BAD, DOUBLE CHECKING, MAY SAVE YOUR SANITY (I TORE MY JEEP APART FOR DAYS, BEFORE I REALIZED MY NEW REPLACEMENT IGNITION MODULE WAS BAD TOO...WAS MOMENTS FROM CRYING!)
IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO DO TESTING, MANY POPULAR AUTO PARTS STORES WILL DO THIS LOAD TESTING, CHARGING SYSTEM TESTING FOR YOU FOR FREE!!!---ON VEHICLE OR OFF
JUST GET IT THERE FAST AS YOU CAN WITH THE FULLY CHARGED BATTERY, BEFORE THE PROCESS REPEATS ITSELF!
