Hello Everyone, I am new to the site, this is my first post. I have tried searching for my problem but I am not great with the terms so I may have missed it. Here goes..
I have a 2003 Grand Prix GTP and the dash indicator (the one that shows the info like miles per gallon or the turbo gauage for when the turbo is engauged)goes off for a few seconds and then comes back on. It use to be intermitten but now it seems like I can never get the indicator on again. Also, my heater/ac fan does not work when the lights are off as well. Any ideas?

ok...i stand corrected...it is supercharged...i called it dash indicator cause I was not sure what to call it, DIC is much more correct..thanks for the correction and the ideas, I think I will investigate the ignition switch...
BTW - Thanks Ordonez 1307 for the welcome I am from Middle Island (near Port Jeff).

Ok Everyone, Ready for some more info... I was out checking the ignition switch last night when I also noticed that my DRL went off when I turned my Heater/AC Fan on. Also turned on my seat heater to see if that worked. When I turned my seat heater on, after a few seconds I heard a noise. A scratching should, kinda like a short. So I turned off the seat heater and the noise went away. Once I realized a there might be a short in the seat heater I unpluged it and all my problems went away. The DIC is back, heater/AC fan working everything is good. The only part that didnt make sense was that I then plugged the seat heater back in and everything is still working.
