Mike C Posted January 23, 2021 Report Share Posted January 23, 2021 Mine drops a little below zero due to the starter motor draw, but it goes right up after the engine starts to replenish the battery. If the gauge makes a big movement when you tap it , it's sticking internally. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
