Speedometer, Avg MPG, and odometer not working in warm to hot conditions. When it is cool outside everything is on and working but after 10minutes or so after the car has warmed up everything mentioned above turns off and all the other indicators turn on like ABS, Service Engine, and Trac control. I live in Florida so it is only just now starting to even come on again with the weather cooling down. I figure it is a short but have no idea why it seems to be temperature related. Any help would be awesome. -David
