Gauge Custer stopped working

[Justanoldmanche]

Ok, first post since getting my comanche.

 

1990 2wd 4.0 5 speed.

 

The left side 'cluster' (parking break emissions check etc) were working fine as well as fuel. ( basic cluster with dummy oil etc)

 

Noticed when I got home from driving at night that they were no longer working.

 

I have checked fuses and seemed fine.  Instrument ribbon on back look clean as well as connections.  I was in the middle of testing fuel sending (unplugging, cross grounding etc) but got busy with dinner and kiddo.

 

Turn signal, high beam, back lights all work.  Door chime works (key in with door open)

Did you check the fuses with the test light? If you didn’t there’s no way in telling if there’s power going through them or not.

Bet its the fuse block, do they come alive if you wiggle the instrument fuse

I have not yet, will do once I find time to work on it again.

I'll check on that when I work on it again.

Update:

 

Looks like I accidently kicked the fuse block or something but fuse was loose and partially broken.

 

Thank you for the help
