all right ive been procrastinating on this one. when i bought the car the only gauges that work are my speedo and tach. no fuel level, water temp, oil pressure nothing. Do any of you have any ideas?

Fuse is good im not that dumb.

Check to make sure everything is plugged in real snug on the back of the cluster

Make sure your grounds are good especially the one on the drive side fender in the engine compartment

I doubt its the grounds, but its worth looking into as our cars are approaching there 30's!

check the 2-wire pigtail behind the alternator. without it, gauges wont work provided everything else are in ship shape condition.
