Speedo, odometer and temp gauge not working?

Postby tianporn » Tue Apr 04, 2006 8:02 pm

Hey asking on behalf of my dad. He has a mid 90's Hiace and he noticed today that the speedo, odometer and temp gauge all stopped working. The first thing that came to mind was the speedo cable attached to the gearbox comming loose but then that wouldnt affect the temp gauge would it?

Is there a fuse or something for the gauge cluster?

Any help appreciated. :D
