Mine is not a '96, but on this car and others I have owned - not all Chryslers - the location and amperage of each of the fuses has been detailed in the owner's manual. Check there if you haven't already.
A likely cause is a failing instrument cluster.
Over temperature warning.
Check your grounding on your temp sending unit.
In the middle (about 195 degrees).
The fuel level sensor is on the fuel pump, in the fuel tank.
The odometer unit has failed and will need replaced.
You need to check the oil pressure with a mechanical gauge.
Are they flipped all the way around? I had my Caravan do the same when the battery went dead. I actually had to remove the gauge cluster and manually move them back. I am not too familiar with the sebring but since they are made by the same parent companies it shouldn't bee that hard to do yourself.
In a 2000 Chrysler Sebring, the fuse for the speedometer and gas gauge is typically located in the fuse box under the dashboard on the driver's side. You should check the owner's manual for the exact fuse number, but it is usually labeled as "Instrument Panel" or "Gauges." If the gauges are not functioning, inspecting and replacing this fuse may resolve the issue.
I also have a 2000 Chrysler Sebring which I have owned since 2000 and I love it. I was beginning to have the same problem even sitting in traffic for only a couple seconds would cause the gauge to go up. Now recently when I was sitting in traffic the temperature needle was in the red and the temp. light was on. Thank god traffic started moving again and with in seconds of moving, the needle returned to normal and the light turned off. The car seems to be running fine but concerned I brought it to a Chrysler Dealer and they said it wasn't the thermostat but actually the temperature sensor which had to be replaced. I am not sure what the difference is but they replaced it and it runs normally, no overheating.
If it is just those two that have quit, the cluster has failed.If it is just those two that have quit, the cluster has failed.
The digital odometer on a Chrysler Sebring is typically located on the instrument cluster, which is directly behind the steering wheel. It is usually integrated into the dashboard display alongside other gauges, such as the speedometer and fuel gauge. To view the odometer reading, simply turn on the ignition, and it should be visible on the display. In some models, you may need to toggle through different displays using the buttons on the dashboard or steering wheel.
