Hey Mona==Get it checked out before you ruin the engine. If the gauge is gound into the red there is a problem somewhere. If you ignore it you can ruin the engine which is megabucks. GoodluckJoe

When the check gauges light comes on it is telling you to check the gauges because at least one of the gauges is out of normal range. It could be low oil pressure, engine over heating or low voltage.
You can get gauges with instructions at auto parts stores Oil Pressure, engine temp, amps or volts
The check gauges light comes one when one of the gauges is not in the safe range. It could be an engine overheat, low oil pressure, or the alternator over/under charging.
Found the problem. OBDII gave me a fault code. P1694. It was the Crankshaft Position Sensor. The sensor was shorting out which caused the gauges to not function.
My older Blazer has a 'check engine' light and also a 'check gauges' light. When the 'check gauges' light is on, check your other gauges like the temp and volt gauges. One of them may be showing something different than normal.
