Why won't any of my gauges work on my 1988ford f-150?

There is a fuse for the gauges, check it.

gauges don t work truck wont start

Believe it or not, I have had to disconnect the cig lighter in order for the tail lights to work. Sounds far fetched but it does work!

check the fuse under gauges

what do you mean? did they stop working, work now and then, or what is working and what not? if everthing is dead and the truck runs ok, then ckeck the fuses, but im not sure at all it could be PCM related.

That is a sign or dead battery or battery terminals are corroded

F150 lighning's have a supercharged 5.4L motor, regular F150's do not, unless there is aftermarket work done. Non-supercharged 5.4's can be converted to supercharged, but there is quite a bit of work involved.

Start the thing...............

You would have to check the bolt pattern out for sure. But I'm really sure they wont work.

my 1998 doge ram van, all my gauges are not working

Why dashboard gauges stopped working on a 2000 Jeep Laredo

when you had that problem did the van start? we have the same stuff going on but ours wont start

will a gear shifter fork plate on 89 ford f150 work on 96 ford f150

need more info what gauges?

the instrument panel deos not work all the gauges on my 1988 Audi 5000 cs

Your gauges might not work on the 1997 Mitsubishi Mirage because of exposed wires or a short in the wiring. This could cause the problem when there is moisture or a lack of moisture in the panel. You might also have a faulty fuse.

Replace the Flasher Relay. Located Front seating area, driver side, behind left hand side of instrument panel, on fuse panel.

No. The F150 installation is longitudinal and the Freestar is not. That makes the manifolding incompatible.

check the fuse panel and the fuses

check your ignition switch.

first check the fuses......maybe the cluster of gauges shorted out?....may need to replace it.

it all depends on the model of f150 you have. some came with 20 inch, 18 inch and the smallest were 17 inch. But if you have 17 inch original wheels and you want to buy aftermarket wheels for your truck they wont work..Some will but most wont due to steel being then and alloy being thick there is not much roon (1/4 inch) between wheel and brake caliper.

Yes and no you have to rebuild the gauges so they read 12 volt The volt meter wont work with an alternator it was designed for a generator The fuel gauge is different ohms if you stay with the 6 cylinder engine the oil and temp gauge will work but if not the temp gauge has to have a longer tube installed and the oil gauge has to have different fittings installed. on the upside…

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.

unplug your crank sensor and see if your gauges start to work some of the time the crank sensor will short and cause a lot of problems if the gauges start to work replace the crank sensor if not look at the 3 wire sensors map tps and o2 sensors one of these vould be the problem also but when you unplug the sensor cycle the key off then on and give it a second…
