so when i got my z, there were a lot more problems than i anticipated. one of the main problems is that none of my gauges work. what do you guys think it might be? also, my tail running lights don't work...any suggestions? i think that might be a bad light push switch, but who knows. any thoughts you have are appreciated.

Hey, harv, welcome to TGO. More info about the gauge problem would be helpful.

well, the speedometer/tachometer just pegs out as soon as the car is turned on, and the others don't read anything at all. the fuses themselves are good, but there may be some internal wiring issues coming out of the fuse box.
are your gauges stuck all the way up passed the max line? or they just dont move. I have an 83 z28 (FUN CAR TO HAVE) and the temp gauge gets stuck. I have to unscrew the dash sometimes and move the needle back down because it gets stuck behind the paneling. the first time it happened I suspected overheating, but it turns out when it has a bit of trouble starting all my gauges go wild and that one sticks. check that
i got the same issue on my 82 z28. i love the car, its my first car, not to mention its got a new 350 and a 350 tranny in it, but my gauges are all messed up exept for a couple of em, and it sucks not knowing how fast im going haha.
