My son took my truck out to do an errand and when he came back all the main guages did not work . Gas ,Oil, Temperture ,Speedometer Milage counter eveything died. I checked the #2 fuse and its Ok. what know? Thanks for your help.

 

Sorry its a 97 4.2 litre

 

Do you have a Fuse #29?

It should be 5 amps.

My wiring diagram shows fuse #2 and #29 wired together.

Do these gauges make a swing when you first start the vehicle.

Can you do the odometer guage test?

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANKYOU. Don,t know how I missed that I checked the book 5 times didn,t see it till you Pointed it out. Guess i was starting to panic.

 

Well mine says #29 is hot at run/start and #2 says hot always. Then it has this stupid little dashed box that feeds the guages that says "solid state" that seems to be controlled by the PCM.

Let me know if the #29 fuse is a dead end. Then theres the problem of why a fuse blew in the first place.

I now see you said the mileage counter was not working so forget the odometer test.

 

yea it was #29 fuse . problem solved Thanks again for pointing that out. I owe you one .

 

Your welcome, I just learned something...
