Will crank and run but lights,radio,and gauges want function.Gauge will fall down to zero function. Then it will raise back up and the systems will start again.Then it is driveable till you cut it off again.

. The sensor that runs the heater and lights. The gauge arrow pointer goes back and forth then it dies down and cuts off.

. My husband took the van to the chevy dealer and found out that the problem was the ground wire was bad. So they replace it. Now my van works good. Thank you for your concern. God Bless. Mrs Roberson
