So I was driving to class this morning and I noticed instantly that my speedometer wasn't working. I took a closer look and I saw that it wasn't just the speedo it was all the gauges in the cluster also including the oil gauge and Volt gauge are stuck. the lights for the gauges turn on. anyone know what causes alll the gauges to get stuck? Thanks in advance.

So I checked the fuses and I did have a blown fuse. replaced it and everything started working. But now I've blown two fuses again since then. It happens every-time I get on it, the fuse just blows out. Any ideas why?

You have a short somewhere.

check wiring harness behind cam cover, a stud rubs on it and can wear into it

When you get on it the engine twists a bit. Check all the harness connections at the firewall on the drivers side. Pay close attention to the harness behind the drivers side cam cover as mentioned.

What circuit does that fuse protect? That is where the short is.
