Up to the other day everything was fine then all electrical components on the dash stopped working. I have checked the fuses and they are all ok. So I have no gauges fuel, temp, etc. And no heater fan controls.

We need to start with removing the panel and check for power and ground getting to it and then find out if we have power coming out.

If you have power and ground going to the panel and yet, none of these components are working then the panel itself has failed.

Here are a few guides that will help with this testing:

Unfortunately, we don't have a wiring diagram on this vehicle as it is too old to be supported by the online manuals, but we can help walk through it.

Please let us know what you find with this, and we can go from there. Thanks
