alright, my car wouldn't start so long story short i got some cops to help me push start it. anyway after i got it started, the backlighting on my guages worked, but none of the other guages worked, i mean nothing... please, does anyone have any idea what the problem is???

 

did u check the fuses?

 

i have no clue which one(s) to check

 

I have this problem after pulling the EGI fuse. I would try starting it up again and see if it works now.

 

check them all

 

Meter Fuse METERFUSE METER FUSE

 

You might also consider pulling the instrument cluster and re-soldering cracked joints. Any printed circuit of this age is going to have solder joints which have cracked from vibration. Cracks can make instrument functions - including lights - really screwy It's easy to fix and made a difference on mine.

thanks, the meter fuse was blown, now to acquire a replacement. btw, i don't have a cover for that fuse box and "Meter" isn't something that i'd think would be for the guage cluster. thanks

 

you wouldn't think that gauges and meters are the same thing?

 

lol, no man, just i was just looking for guages and didn't see it :P
