Default Help ... Weird Electircal Problem

Today I was coming home and then my gauges started acting crazy. They kept going up and down and then all the lights came on and then everything stayed at 0mph 0rpm 0 fuel, etc but the car kept driving. Everytime I would come to a stop light, the lights would come back and then disappear again as soon as I started driving.

Sounds like an alternator. Or a significantly hurtin' battery.

I'd also check your grounds.
