INSTRUMENT PANEL GRAND AM 97 MY MILEGE, FUEL,TEMPERTURE GAUGES ALL STOPPED WORKING. I checked all fuses i could see.

The fuel sending unit is part of the fuel pump assembly so the first thing I would check is the fuse panel for a shorted fuse.
Next I would check for lose connections on the fuel pump assembly and the instrument cluster.
Hopefully theres a lose connection or you may have to change the pump assembly and they can get pricey.
Hope this helps

The fuel level indicating system is a magnetic type system, which consists of the sending unit located in the fuel tank, an anti-slosh module located on the back of the instrument cluster, and a fuel gauge located in the instrument cluster. The sending unit changes resistance according to the level of fuel in the fuel tank, which varies the current flow through the gauge.The pointer position varies proportionately to the current flow. In this system, the sending unit resistance is low (22 ohms) when the fuel level is low and high( 145 ohms) when the fuel level is high. The pointer of the magnetic gauge remains in position when the ignition is turned to the Off position. On some models, an anti-slosh module is used to dampen out fluctuating fuel signals from the sender. Some vehicles are equipped with a low fuel warning indicator. The anti-slosh module will also actuate the low fuel indicator when the fuel level in the tank reaches 1/16 to 1/8 full.


Do your other gauges/warning indicators work properly with the ignition on? If not, check for power at the fuse panel/fuses.

If they do then partially remove your cluster with connector still installed and check for voltage at cluster connector and gauge. Check continuity of cluster and gauge for ground.

Sometimes the anti-slosh module (if installed) goes bad in the Grand Marquis but not likely.

Sender troubleshooting:

1. Perform test with resistors as follows:

1. Disconnect wiring connector at sender unit, then connect resistor between gauge lead and a suitable ground.
2. Turn ignition switch to On position.
3. With 145 ohm resistor, the gauge pointer should contact the Full mark.
4. With 22 ohm resistor, the gauge pointer should contact the Empty mark.

1. Perform test with fuel sender of known quality as follows:

1. Turn ignition to Off position.
2. Disconnect wiring connector from sender and connect it to test sender.
3. Move float rod away from fuel filter against Full stop position. Wait approximately 30 seconds, then turn ignition switch to On position. The gauge should read on or above the Full mark.
4. Move float rod toward fuel filter against Empty stop position. Turn ignition switch to Off position. Wait approximately 30 seconds, then turn ignition switch to On position. The gauge should read on or below the Empty mark. If gauge works properly replace sender, which involves dropping fuel tank.
   

did you change sending unit? that is what sends the signal of amount of fuel. if so then your gauge motor is worn. get a new cluster from wreckers. check all wiring for bad grounds

If all voltages checked ok,then most probably its faulty instrument cluster board on which gauges are connected.Yes if cluster circuit board looks ok,then also it can be faulty.Somewhere there is minute short or burn on board then such prolem arises.
Also check the fuse box.One under hood and other under dash.Inspect each and every fuse and see if all are fine or not.

Thanks.

Anytime when there is multiple issues, I pick one system when the problem is ongoing, check voltage and ground.
The fuses in picture is for instrument cluster, Check for voltage at the fuses when problem is ongoing. Use a test lite. As you can see, one fuse is hot all the time, the other goes hot with the key on.

Check the fuse in the fuse box, if that's ok check the wire harness that connects to the back of the instrument panel. Good luck and hope this helps.

check your instrument panel fuse in the fuse box, the instrument cluster is operated by the same circuit

I have a '97 Chevy 1500 with an automatic trans. This morning i started it up and the speedometer and tachometer needles sit at zero. Also the gear selector fails to light up. Upon accelerating from a stop, it starts in third gear. I can manually downshift to second but not to first. It will not upshift automatically. Only manually. Also, it will not shift into overdrive when up to speed. The check gauges light comes on but only intermittently.
Additionally, the service engine light came on however I suspect that this is a separate problem as the 262 engine does not run well on this horrible new 10% ethanol fuel and it makes it throw an O2 sensor code. Does anybody have a clue here? I changed the 10amp fuse for the gauges but it hasn't fixed the issue. I didn't think it would resolve it because the rest of the instrument panel works (oil pressure, temp, voltage, fuel). Please, any advice.

yes there is light bulbs behind the instrument panel easy job to do your self they just turn come out and put the new bulb in. also you will have to take your dash out it will have to bundels of wires in clips and one black thick wire from the back of it for the speedo that will clip in to
