1998 Ford F150 V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic

Hi. I own a 1998 F150 XLT with 52,000 miles. The gauges (speedometer, tachometer, oil pressure, fuel, temperature and charging gauge) does not work. The rest in the instrument cluster works (warning lights). The truck runs great otherwise. Everyone points to the GEM Module. Any comment?

Thanks.

That could be the problem. Many of them were damaged due to a leak from the windshield that would allow water to drip down onto them. It is located behind the fuse panel. Check to see if there is any evidence of water damage?
