Angry Guage malfunction

I parked my car last night and now this morning i went to turn it on and none of my digital gauges are working. And also my headlight warning buzzer isnt working. i have replaced all blown fuses found and even some inline fuses but nothing seems to be helping. Please Help

welcome to the club. The digital guages on these trucks are well know for crapping out. The solder connections on the back go bad after a few years. If none of the blown fuses cured it, then its most likely dead.

You can either go to a junkyard and see if you can find one. But most of them are gone as soon as they come in. But theres a guy up in CT, Google "Digital Dash Solutions". He repairs them, for about $125 from what I heard. Several members on here had good dealings with him.

yeah you might be able to clean up the connections and see if that helps.
