I bought the car for my son w/ the speedometer and fuel gauges out of scale. Is it a simple fuse problem or even worst. Thanks ted

It depends. Please explain in detail as to what the problem or what the needles are doing.

Based on the diagnostics, if the vehicle speed sensor is operational and the speedometer is fluctuating, replace the instrument panel.
