Sorry......... Year, Make, Model........ lol, read your post, can you answer that....lol

Give the Forum more information....... Is that all that is acting up? When does it do it? .....As you are driving car, sitting still, when you first start it up. Do you know, or can you pull any codes??

sorry new at this, its a 1989 4.5 sedan deville,not driving the car just bought it to sell, as soon as you start it the dash starts flashing on and off, other times the dash lights right up and works fine,then after a few minuets it starters flashing again. not able to get any codes. thanks for the help, john.

okay, so...... it had been sitting 12 years, and the battery HAS NOT been changed??? whoops, mixed up with another post...
I'd for sure replace battery.
dash flashing at times..... ???? have you checked plug-ins etc?? sometimes that could be related to ignitiion switch..... hmmmm
get battery replaced, ......see what happens after that.... let the forum know.
good luck
