Instrument Panel Died


Recommended Posts

I just recently noticed that the guages in my 97 5 speed cut off. They worked about 10 minutes before that, and all of the sudden they were just cut. I went over a pretty large bump...could this be it?Also, the turn signal and high beam lights in the center of the consol work, but the others do not...such as the seatbelt and check engine lights that normally come on when you start the car. In addition to the tach and mph guage being off, I noticed that the temp guage does not work either, hopefully the same does not apply to my fuel guage. I tried restarting the car with no luck. Can anybody help me? I would be grateful for any help at all.

Does the backlight for the gauges work?

 

Check your fuses, in the panel at the dash, and underhood.

 

If that's not it, it's possible the electrical connections worked themselves loose from the back of the panel.

It was a fuse that died, and right after the alternator crapped out...luckily my friend has a SHO and it can run w/o a battery so he just gave me his to get home. Thanks for the help!
