Former Moderator. RIP Icemark.
CPU = body computer
ECU = engine computer
which one?
Either way the gauges are controlled by the Meter fuse not the ECU or CPU. If they don't work, they are either unplugged or the meter fuse is blown. Many of the idiot light functions are controlled by the room fuse.
Remember with ATC fuses they may not look blown when they actually are. The only way to be sure is to meter each one that is in question. That is why they put the tabs on the top of ATC fuses.

Most likely your ECU is fine..., if your lights and gauges stopped working check your VSS and unplug your whole cluster. check to see if anything on the cluster board was burnt or fried... if it was your ecu, it wouldnt work one bit..so check it out.
