Gauges went out

1990 Camaro Iroc Z28

hello all, my gauges went out. need help to repair. We've check the fuse box and there's power going in but there is none coming out.

I have my neighbor checking it out, we're thinking of just rigging it. What do you guys think? I've read that these incidents occur pretty often, maybe someone has the fix fresh on their mind. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Gauges went out

I had something similar happen on mine. The fuse was good on the fuse block, but no power on either one prong. I was extremely worried I melted or fried something and would be putting in new wiring.

When I unbolted the fuse block from the dash assembly and pulled it down where I could inspect it I found the backside of the wiring was not making a good connection. It was a pretty quick fix once I found the issue.
