I have a 1992 Jeep Yj and one day all the gages on the dash died. The fuel gage oil pressure gage and every other one. all the lights still work. Checked all the fuses and other connections does any one have any idea what else to check? its a complete mystery.

Is there a ground conection to the dash frame. I had an s10 years ago the had guages that died on and off turned out to be a loose ground dash frame to the firewall.

On the fire wall , under the hood , in the vicinity of the map sensor , there's a gray connector .

This connector has many of the wires for the guages , oil pressure , voltmeter , tempurature.

1st thing I did was check all my fuses and they were all good, mine turned out to be a bad wire somewhere under the dash coming from my accessory wire. I ended up splicing into it and tying it into my CD player (Which now works!) and my gauges now all work fine as well! Apart from my oil pressure gauge, which always reads 6...

Just finished putting in aftearket guages in my YJ. Have old cluster if you want to plug it in and see if it fixes everything. There are two power feeds and two grounds for the cluster so it's weird to have all of them quit. PM me if you need a hand.
