Have you checked the GAGES fuse?

It’s situated in the Fuse Block which is located up and to the left of the brake pedal, behind a small door.


Happy Racing !

With the key in the RUN position use a voltmeter or small bulb to find out if there is power on both sides of the fuses.

Is there?

Re: no gauges 1 big problem

Was able to take a look at my issue again over this thanksgiving holiday and I did find that the Gage 10amp fuse was blown. Replaced it and drove 1.3 miles and popped the fuze again. I guess it is now time to search for a short.
