All my gauges are not working including speedometer and tachometer, it has a no bus. But the truck runs fine some stalling, help not much but starts right back up. I replaced the cluster; I got another brain from junkyard same exact problem. Help please.

Hi,

A no-bus bias can be the result of a few things. For example, a fuse can cause it, or a damaged or open circuit.

I attached the diagnostics below for you. Take a look through them and let me know if you are comfortable performing the tests.

The last pic below is of the data link connector (DLC). It indicates each pin's function and will be needed for testing.

Let me know what you find.

Take care,

joe
