Gauges Not Working!!!

[terminator0723]

My gauges arn't working for some odd reason. The only one that works is the voltometer. When you shut the truck off the fuel gauge moves up a bit doesn't represent the correct amount of fuel. The rest of them just stay still. Anybody know what's going on here?

this sounds like you might have a fuse thats blown. Look under the hood on the drivers side in the fuse panel there for a blown fuse, and if you cant find one, look in the panel just inside the drivers door. As for your fuel gauge, this sounds like you may have a wire that is grounding out againstyour frame/body on your truck. Mine did the exact same thing, look for the wires taht some out of the sender from the gas tank, and follow them up to the engine bay, and look for any parts where the wire may be exposed and rubbing. On my truck, there was a panel that held the wire against the side of the bed, and over time it rubbed through the bed, and caused it to ground out.
