Help Save My '91 Blazer
I have a 1991 S10 Chevy blazer. My grandpa gave it to me and it is a great vehicle. I have been driving it for a while and the cluster (digital) has been..... well it has not worked really at all since I have had the vehicle. None of the display works my first question is; is there a procedure for converting a digital cluster to an analog cluster? I have seen posts for going from analog to digital but not the other way around. If there is such an operation, could someone point me in the right direction?
My second question is; Why doesn't my blazer start? It seemed like out of nowhere when I tried to start it, it would not start. I checked the fuses and I can't remember which fuse it was, but it would keep blowing every time I tried to start the vehicle. The engine cranks but will not fire.
Any comments or concerns? If there is something I should try, please let me know!
Thank You!!

It sounds like the gauge cluster is the problem. When my 91 jimmy's digital dash went out on me I had it repaired by an automotive instrument company in my area (SPECMO). They repaired it in a couple days for $160. They kept the odometer at the same mileage and it performed flawlessly for 12 more years. It still worked when I scrapped the truck.
I don't know about swapping to analog because I wasn't willing to give up the coolest turn signal indicators ever put on a vehicle. I still miss them.

Fixed
Bought and installed a new ignition switch and had the cluster repaired. This did not fix the problem even though it was nice to have the cluster working again. I put in a different ignition module and it runs and drives just like before. Thanks for all of the suggestions!
