Trying to diagnose why the gauges will not work in the truck. These are the factory gauges and none are working. Where should I Start in trying to diagnose the issue?

Thanks
Doug

Yes, fuses. If not, I’d check to make sure the cluster’s plugged in and my next suspect might be he printed circuit. Hopefully it’s the gauge fuse, and there aren’t any shorts.

I also concur that checking the cluster plug in and or the printed circuit sheet would most likely be your problem if none of your electrical controlled gauges are working.
