Don't have owners manual for wife's car. She can't tell what gear she is in and can't see the odometer. Need to know which fuse it would be?

This model of vehicle has a very common problem with the resistor falling off in the instrument cluster, more specifically four of them fall off due to the poor solder quality on the resistors. I highly doubt it is a fuse, however you can check the labels on the cover of the fuse panel. Should you replace the fuse and it still doesn't work it would be a resistor problem. You can find some resistors at Radio Shack for about $5.00 plus a solder kit if you don't have one for about $10. You will need four 1/8 Watt 150 Ohm resistors as I would replace all of them so you don't have to worry about any others falling off in the future.

Here is a good Youtube video on it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yC1JnljnfTY&feature=related
