questions about dash display and other things...

well i have 90 rx7 gxl...... i have 3 questions first one is: my dash display (the thing with all the lights like e-brake and stuff) it flickers on and off and sometimes it goes darker as i push brakes... wat is that???? is it a ground wire issue or wat??? bad wiring???? my second question is the clock in the dash display resets like i think when it gets to 1:00... y does it do that???? my final question is somtimes like after a couple months of just normal driving mashing every once and awhile my coolant light comes on and beeps.... i check it and theres liked a quarter inch of fluid missing???/ y does the sensor go off so early? bad sensor? or is the sensor just that sensitive....?

thx a lot

1. it might have a bad connection or loose wire that makes it flicker OR there is a prblem with your charging system.

2. It resets because there is no power ( as in something wrong with the battery or charging system)

3. are you 100% sure it's teh coolant BUZZER and not the OIL BUZZER? either way the only times I've encountered this was when the coolant/ oil was almost gone or when the fluids are low and i'm in the middle of the turn. When you check and you see 1/4" of fluid missing; are you checkijng the radiator or the reservoir??

sounds like a grounding issue with the light flickering
