My battery gauge is not reading anything when I drive. Also, my speedometer is not reading. When I turn on the lights, thr makes the same sound it does when you leave the lights on when the car is off. What could be causing this?

charge your battery and then have it checked. If it is ok then have the engine scanned to see if your speedo sender may be bad. you might have a bad ignition switch causing the gauge to screw up or a fuse. but get eth ebattery cheked first s that can effect multiple things if it's bad.
