on my 1994 chrysler new yorker, my gauges on the dash do not work. The speedomete, temp gauge, odometer, and fuel level gauge stopped working. also the transmission selector light doesnt come on...but the car works!? Is it a relay or fuse or wiring, and where or how do i fix it?

Hi:
First check for bad body ground straps. Also, check the plugin in on the rear of the dashboard. If everything looks good, you will need to have the Body Control Module (BCM) tested. Before doing that, however, try disconnecting the battery for about 10 minutes then reconnecting to see if that resets the BCM.

Let me know what you find.
