You may want to check and see if you have a blown fuse or look for a loose or disconnnected electrical harness at the dash instrument panel. How long has it been doing this?

Suggested Repair

Check for a blown fuse and inspect the dash instrument panel electrical harness for a loose or disconnected connector.
