Instrument cluster problems

[Seatun]

my instrument cluster craped out the other day and now all the lights stay on, the temperature gage, the tachometer, speedometer and fuel gage woulnt move. its just stuck at the E/0/low, the temperature light stays on and the fuel gage "E" light is on (it had at least a 1/4 tank of gas before all of this happend). i checked all the fuses and none were blown. anyone know how this is fixed or what caused it?

Well, these dash clusters are known to go 'out' with no hope of simple solder-and-repair.
I've heard that a junkyard dashboard, mebbe from e-Bay, is easiest repair, but I don't know the particulars.

Try a 'search' for dash cluster in these forums.

Personally, I would CHECK every fuse by pulling it/testing it.
And, there are two 'fuse boxes' (one main distribution box, next to the battery; and the fuse panel at the driver's end of the dashboard).

Many circuits on the GA inter-relate, and a blown fuse in one seemingly-unrelated circuit can affect the function of another circuit.

Also, might be simply the ignition switch subcircuit that powers the dash, I dunno.
Anything else goofy happening electrically in the vehicle?

I take it the car runs fine otherwise, and there are no codes??

Good luck.
