Dash Gauges Don't Work?

I bought a 1989 Camaro RS a couple months back. I've been doing some work on it, getting ready to put it on the road but none of the gauges work?? Only the gas gauge works. The speedometer just sits there and the rpm stay at the top speed. I have no clue what's wrong with it!

You didn’t say so we will assume those never worked in your possession.

Make sue the 2 connectors at the back of the dash are fully plugged in.

You could have a common problem or many separate problems.

To find out; with the engine OFF, but the key in the RUN position, ground the sender wire, then look at the temp gage.

What does the gage do when that wire is grounded?

The temperature sender is located in the top left front of the engine most VINS.


Happy Racing !
