Default confused!

Hi all.

I have a chrsyler grand voyager crd auto and i am confused with the dash dial needles (speedo, temp and rev counter) everytime i attempt to start the engine i find the lights don't come on on the dash board and the needles all move from zero all the way round and then back to zero. They do this upto three times before the lights eventually come on and we can start the engine. Can anyone explain why it does this PLEASE????!!!!

Assuming that your battery is in good shape and has enough cranking amps the next step would be to have the engine controller and body controller scanned for any fault codes. I have seen this problem in the past and the problem that I remember was due to a faulty car battery
