Help......What's wrong now?

So, my wife was just driving along, when all of the sudden all the gauges, except for the speedo, stopped working, and the exhaust overheat, and battery light came on. Oh yeah, the turn signals stopped working too. I checked the fuses, and two were bad (not sure which ones). I put new fuses in, but the problem still remains. Any Ideas????
Thanks
Brian

Check your alternator belt, then your ground. If you lose either, you may get those symptoms. Good luck!
