I almost guarantee that is your issue...mine did the same thing when I installed some gauges and hooked up the ground in a bad spot. Where did you install the ground for the new gauge?

97-99 are compatible....although I'd still like to know where you grounded the gauge

not to sound like a broken record but you need to check your grounds....my car did the exact same thing when I hooked up my gauges and shared a ground point with the dash ground behind the radio.

You may just want to put the original back, I had hid's and the pass. side kept blowing fuses. Once I took them out it was fine, I do agree with srt4eh it more than likely is a ground or loose connection but until you can take time to get thorough with it I would switch back to the original.

If not the grounds... I'd check your ignition switch.
