I have no lights working on my dashboard, my gauges aren't working when I drive, and I have a personal settings error messge which caused it, can anybody help??

As I sat in my car yesterday the dashboard switched from my name, to one of a previous owner twice, and the lights on my dashboard went out. As I tried to switch my settings back in my personal settings, it blocked me out and said that there is a personal settings error each time. I can't tell how fast I'm going, how much gas I have or anything when I'm driving.

SOURCE: gas gauge, temperature gauge don't work; TC light won't turn off;

there is usually a button on bottom of the steering column to push to take the key out of the ignition. it should allow you to turn the key to the lock position

SOURCE: digital heater countrol and fuel gauge not working

i had the same problem in my 91 deville but the fuel gauge was intermittent at first, working most of the time then eventually it quit working all together, i also replaced my ignition switch thinking that was the issue but what actually happened is the fuel gauge shorted out the 16 volt supply from the bcm (body control module) which also feeds the ac and in my case the digital speedometer. your speedo probably isnt digital, but if you unplug the fuel gauge from the harness your ac gauge should come back on or vise versus unplug your ac and the fuel gauge should come back on right now im trying to locate fuel gauge. i hope this info is helpful to you, all you need to remove the gauge is 1/4 inch drive rachet and 7mm socket and a phillips screwdriver (#1) for the trim

SOURCE: my car will not shift gears or go into reverse. HELP!

So I'm guessing that when you put it in reverse and it won't move. If you put it in 1st it moves but won't shift to 2nd? And it rattles. And since you have a 4.9 in it the transmission is a 4T60E. I am going to guess that you broke the reverse reaction shell in the transmission.

There is a fuse for the high beams located either under the hood or on the drivers side dashboard side panel closest to the door.

Dashboard lights aren't working when the light

You don't indicate what kind of vehicle you have but my guess is you have a cross feed between the dash light circuit and the ignition circuit. You'll probably have to isolate these two circuits (not an easy task).

Dashboard gauges fail & engine misfires.

Does the check engine light go on??? there have a couple possible causes for your issue, one could be a clogged fuel filter, another could be a plugged catalytic converter.

My dashboards lights and gages aren't working

You may want to check to see if you have a "gauges" fuse on the fuse panel. Another possibility is the cigarette lighter fuse. Sometimes they're wired on the same circuit.

Hope this helps! :)

Dashboard lights and gauges go out, windows won't work

Your alternator is out. Those are classic symptoms of alternating going out. The alternator recharges your electrical system and when it goes out a list of strange things go on inside the dash, and you won't be able to go very far on just a battery. I'm glad you at least made it home. But yes you will need a new alternator for sure. Please rate this response so I can get my ratings back up to 90% at least.

1998 Plymouth Grand Voyager.........Dashboard instruments quit working and don't light up. Speedo, tach, fuel gauge, temp gauge, and mileage indicators and lights for same stopped working. ABS...

You have some wiring problems shorting out that is coming from the dash board so if you or anyone you know how to use a multimeter to check the wireing harnesses plus check any connectors that might be just very touching the connector of dashboard which means a bad connection to dashboard.

Dash, running lights, radio..on and off

Something similar happened to my 2005. the gauges went crazy! stopped half way or dropped completely down. Like the fuel indicator, speedometer, tach. While I never lost the radio or headlights, I did lose my dashboard lights--pretty creepy at night. My husband did some online digging and found the problem. In the dashboard gauge set-up there is a poor solder on one of the electronic components. He took the gauge center off, popped it open, found the crappy solder, fixed it, put it back in and it has worked fine ever since!!!



the ****--Ford knows about this faulty soldering and since it doesn\'t happen to ALL of the cars--just a select few(even more models we found out later)--they won\'t do a recall. Even if you take it to a dealership for them to fix, odds are they could replace it with an entire unit with the same problem. Your best bet is to fix the bad solder yourself or find someone who can.
