Electrical Problems

I am having trouble w/ my dash. It just got cold here (21 degrees today) and in the morning and after work when I start the car the Speedo, fuel gauge, and Tach don't work. Usuall after around 10 min they'll suddenly jump back to life.

How can I find the source of my problem or could someone direct on where to look? Thanks in advance for your help.
 
More than likely a poor connection or ground under the dash. At least thats where I would start to look. It happens with the computers that I repair, all the time, and to fix it, I generally disconnect connectors and add a little electrical contact grease and reconnect. The problem is that when the parts get cold, they contract and miss the contacts and when they warm up they expand and make the contact. Good luck
