1997 Jeep Laredo no working gauges on dashboard

It could be your guage pod but more than likely it is your Body Control Module, it is located on the bottom driverside of your dash. It is a black plastic bos about 5in. X 7in. X 2in. Thick and will have a white sticker on it with the serial number. If you get the correct one from a junk yard, you do not have to take it in to get it programmed to your vehicle. There are 4 black screw holding it in place and 2 big plugs on the backside and one plug on the bottom. Call a dealer with your VIN and ask them what part numbers are for yours and go to a junk yard and pull one out for around $35 on average. This should fix your problem. You can do what I said previously or take it to a mechanic to have it diagnosed properly as electrical issues can be tricky to find. One way to test you guage pod is to test all of the wires to the plug(there is only one plug going into the guage pod for everything) and see if there is power to it, if there is power to it, then you have a bad pod, if there is no power, then the BCM is more than likely your problem.
