Alright everything is put back together after HG Install. Engine runs and sounds great, but none of the Instrument cluster guages are working...

No Temp guage, no tach, no speedo, no oil-pres, no turbo vacc etc

Anything that might cause these guages to quit all at once?

Also the Windows quit working as well

a fuse? check the 7.5 "guage" fuse

Edit: the speedo is mechanical check the cable connections ..... if everything is connected good then you need a new one.

Well we're looking at everything right now. There was a blown 7.5 Fuse that we found yesterday and replaced it, but no changes.

It's just weird that all the lights work. Just no guages, no Clock and no windows.

my car has toggle switches all over it... for all i know, they could control my gauges. every time i think about that i want to kill the previous owner of my car.

im still trying to find out why my speedo, boost and oil pressure gauges dont work.


Speedo cables are mechanical replace the cable. Check you vac lin to the boost sensor in the engine bay. Have you grounded you oil pressure wire?
