Tom,

I think you are thinking in the right direction.
It has to be something simple somewhere.

I hate to even suggest this, as I'm certainly not a tech, but could it be
something as simple as a grounding problem?  If the gauge cluster is not
properly grounded (not clean, tight, etc.) could that be the source of the
problem?

haven't heard that MB has identified the problem or the solution but our
doesn't seem related to the fuel levels - - just activation of lights, turn
signal, etc.
