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

How can I fix or test my fuel gauge. It does not show anything and all my fuses are good.

if it is just the fuel gauge in the cluster not working i would have the sending unit in the tank tested.

Fuel/temp gauges not working. blows hot/cold air full blast all the time. once in awhile digitals start flashing like a strobe.

i just got a 93 deville doing the same thing. I ordered a new body control module online for under $100 so I am hoping that is the problem. It is behind the glove box and control much of the dash information system.

I have a 92 cadillac deville and the fuel data and climate control screens both show a 'c' on them and the heat is on full blast?

the heater is in limp mode if you have electricity experience go to the library and get a manual because that heater does a wack of **** and you need to know how to press the right two buttons at once to get into the heater menus in the actual heater control
