Electrical....FML
Needing some help with what I am thinking is an electrical issue. My gauges are only half working. My speedometer doesn't work (neither does the odometer), my tachometer moves, but says I idle at 5k rpm's (obviously inaccurate). Has anyone had this issue before? What are some ideas of what I need to look at?

a factory service manual would be handy for the diagnostic charts

Turn the park lights on & off and see if the gauges change. Do this with the cluster lighting turned up bright. If the gauges change when turning the lights on & off it is likely a ground problem to the cluster.
