Temp gauge spinning

I just noticed this yesterday, I took my bird out of storage from the winter and everything seems fine. Except the temp gauge...it will start to jump all over the place and it will actually start spinning around really fast and sometimes will stop outside of the range reading. It's very weird and this is the first time it has ever happend. I can't say the gauge was very accurate to begin with, but it never did anything like this before. What would cause it to spin around? Also sometimes it will go clockwise or counterclockwise. I haven't checked the temp sensor or anything yet. anyone have any ideas??
