Angry Need Some Advice...???

For the past couple mornings, everytime I start up my SS all the needles on all the gauges flip all the way back...then go back to there starting position then settle where they need to be. My trip reader always resets to 0.00 every morning. I remeber this happening when I fired it up for the first time... after installing my LT's and ORY. Now its been doing this the past couple days.

Is this normal ? Can someone give me some advice about this situation and what I can do to fix it ? Thanks

Mods... TSP LT's, ORY & Rumbler Exhaust, Cold Air Induction Kit, K&N Filter, Carbon Fiber Lid, Descreened MAF, Smooth Bellow, Ported T/B, LS6 Intake, LS6 Heads, U/D Pulley, TR55's S/P, .... 59,100 miles on the clock

It's related to the battery. Check for corrosion or a loose battery cable. It's possible that you need a new battery too (perhaps a cell is dead/bad). I'm going through this constantly, but I haven't thoroughly cleaned out the corrosion and sealed it. I'll have to do that today as I was having problems starting my car this morning. And yes, I have a sealed Optima battery.
