Intermittent problems are the worst because it could be just a
single problem or there could be multiple causes.
Usually it is a loose connection somewhere. All of your problems seem to
be on the switched fuse side so you start there.
You might be able to do a wiggle test on the wires to see if you can
manually make the problem happen. You should check all the connectors to
see if they are tight and making good connections with no corrosion. You
may need to check all of the ground wires. OK, this one is unusual but you
might want to change the fuse first, I have seen a few fuses that look
normal but they are making intermittent contact internally. Have a wiring
diagram handy so you know which and what wires you need to look at and work
on.
Hope this helps and good luck putting the Lucas smoke back into the system.

Gang need some advice...
Last couple days my gauges and parking/brake lamps and turn signals
intermittently work and don't work. I drive my car daily. Checked
fuses - ok. I do have a solid state gauge regulator by Ed. However,
car drives fine. Advice on what to check. I still am driving to and
from work - 10 minutes in Atlanta.
