Olds Aurora Tachometer and Speedometer not working

I have an 1997 Oldsmobile Aurora and I have been fixing things on this car left and right. The car has always had a problem with the radio. It would cycle the cd player or tape player then show the error E22. Sometimes the air would come on by itself too. But recently the windows are only rolling down with the driver controls and the cruise works every once in a while.

Today the speedometer and the tachometer doesn't work. The car runs but the dash doesn't register either of those functions. Anyone know what this could be?

    Yes it is totally blank. None of the gauges work.

    I live in St. Peters, MO. 63376. I'm planning on having a mechanic look at it because it turns out the air conditioning doesn't work either.

According to my parts guide, the fuel pump for your 97 Olds Aurora fits only that and the 97 Buick Riviera's and nothing else. The pump for a 99 Park avenue comes up as a different part number. Hope this helps!
