HELP! 2000 D2, Dash/Gauges stop working while driving

[ezjuarez]

A little concerned. While driving, the tach, speedo, fuel & Temp gauges stop working, as well as the odometer. No blinker lights or nothing. Does not affect the performance of the truck though. I'm stumped. Any ideas?

thanks in advance.

A loose connection? If anything quits at once, makes me want to start with looking at a loose ground connection.

Except it's "earth connection" in the UK, LOL. Funny how they mangle our language overseas. Oh, snap, wait, it's called English and they are in England... Never mind.

check the fuses.

Weird thing is, once it dies this, if I shut off the ignition and wait about a minute, everything works fine again. Then it may/may not do it again. I'll check ground & connections tomorrow.

Thx

Check the ground connection on the passenger side. If sitting in the seat, it's on the upper left side of the firewall/footwall area just below the carpet line.
