Engine Cooling problem
2006 Dodge Ram V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic

my 2006 ram 1500 quadcab seems to have some difficulties. for example when i drive the water temp needle moves a little past the center line then goes back and it will keep playing itself like that until i shut off the truck. then the oil temp does so also. and the battery needle sometimes moves too. what do i need to do?

Some slight movement is a normal operation. Coolant temperature, oil pressure, and battery voltage constatantly change values. If the gauge move alot abnormally i would have the gauge cluster checked. Might just be a loose connection going into the cluster.
