The oil light, etc on dashboard don't light. Radio, lights turn signals work. Have tried fuses, but can't find. Came back on once after sitting out in sun all day, but are now back off again.

Sorry, stated this wrong. Lights all work, but gauges don't work.

This is a very common problem with this vehicle. The inst panels have a history of going bad. That is my first guess if none of the gauges are working. You can try disconnecting and reconnecting the battery to see if it will reset.
