Exclamation Wierd oil presure and voltage meter

My oil pressure and voltage meter gauges are moving exactly the same together up and down while idling pretty sure my oil pressure used to stay right at or above 40pounds at idle but now stays below 40 at first I thought maybe my oil pump was going out

-ALSO whenever I am driving if I turn anything on or off radio, cruise control, lights ect. My oil pressure and voltage meter will move a bit exactly in sync in the same direction and same amount. Really have never seen anything like this any ideas welcome

hello my dash went out in my 2500 avy. I found out that one of the gauge motors burned out and I eventualy lost all guages.
so I sent it hear for repair. I highly recommend them
free shiping and I haven't had no issues.

there was a recall on guage clusters at one time but I had to many miles
to qualify for the repair.
good luck
