Took my 01 350hp 36 MDDS out of storage today and had the same problem twice in the first few minutes of driving. All of the idiot lights lit up and all guages shut down on the dashboard. No engine malfunction at all. After a brief period as in turning the ignition on the idiot lights went off and the guages reset. It was if I was turning the ignition on for preheat before starting except I was at a stop light!!! Could be a sign of upcoming ignition problem? Anyone have experienced this and if so found a solution. Appreciate some input.

Jetar - On our '03 40'mdts we had trouble with all the dash gauges going out & coming back intermittently - then going out for good. It was the brain that is located back by the batteries that had to be replaced. Worked fine after that.
