I think this is a bug in the program.

It's a known bug with retractable gear helos in FS2002. Try pausing the sim, then hit the G key. Not ideal but that's the only way over it I know.

If its an FS9 aircraft and/or panel, it might not work.
Or there may be an issue with your graphics card. Make sure you have the latest drivers for it.

It still sounds like a panel problem.
As a temporary measure, switch to the default Cessna panel.
If the problem goes away then it IS the panel.
Switch back to the B-52 panel and edit the panel.cfg file by commenting out each gauge in turn by putting // in front each gaugenn= line. You will have to keep switching between the B-52 and another aircraft for each change and it will take a long time but you will track down the bad gauge.
Then you can tell us how to fix it. :-)
