Default More F@#$ing probs.

Ok I will start from the begining, about a week ago I was just driving down the road and my hazard button just flew up. It broke in half. Then yesterday Me and a few friends went to Dooks(local strip club) and about 30 miles from town my house I noticed that my tac and speedo weren't working. I have had this problem once before so I knew how to fix it(push the plug-in on the tranny in). It didn't work still no speedo, so I decide to just fallow a nother truck and worry bout it today. I then realized that none of my gauges were right. Temp about 210, Volts below 9, 3/4 tank(just filled up before I left), speedo 0, tac 0, Oil 50. So I decided to push on the gauge cluster and it worked. Yahh.
Bout 20-30 miles later they just stop again but now the temp was 250, 1/2 tank, speedo 100+, tac 6k +, oil 60 or so. Couldnt fix it this time, so I just drove to Dooks. Got back in about 15 beers an 4 hrs later, and still nothing. So I pulled the dash trim off and tried pulling on the cluster and the hazards turned on and wouldnt go off. I pushed it down with a pen and then the left one went off but the right was still on. After about 5 minutes I gave up and i just put a screw in it to keep it off. Then I noticed my tac worked, but still no speedo. Drove for a minute and the speedo started working again. Now no probs, but I would like to figure out what is going on so it doesn't happen again.
Thanks,
Chris
