QuestionQUESTION: The instrument panel does not work. Nothing illuminates on the instrument panel. No speedometer, fuel indicator, warning lights, nothing. However, the car starts and runs fine, the AC works, headlights and interior lights work. I haven't found a fuse or relay in the owners manual that controls the instrument panel. Do you know what the problem is?
ANSWER: Is this a DIGITAL or ANALOG instrument panel ?.

QUESTION: It is digital.
AnswerCheck your fuses. Could be an open wire circuit at the instrument panel connections, Faulty instrument cluster ground, Faulty micro-processor within the instrument panel.
You need to perform some simple voltage and ground circuit tests at the electrical connector at the back of the instrument cluster.
If you are mechanicaly inclined or know of someone who is, You will need simple electrical schematics, Test procedures and picture locations of the components within the system that is causing you problems of which can't be done on this website which only allows one picture. I do not have a website so you will have to e-mail: onlineautohelp@msn.com in order to obtain the information.
