The dashboard dials in my car keep going crazy - how do I stop these time travelling episodes?

My Renault Megane dashboard dials keep going haywire, like the DeLorean's dashboard in Back to the Future, about 20 minutes into a drive. They go back to normality after two or three minutes of the dials prancing about. Have you got any ideas about how to stop these time travelling episodes?

It would appear that you may have a fault in the dashboard itself. It's difficult to identify the issue without seeing it, so you may have to contact someone who specialises in this type of problem.
