i own a repair shop,and there's a small resistor on the back side of the dash for these,that goes bad,when it goes they gages go crazy ,or don't work at all,you have to pull the dash out to get to it ,but it only cost a few bucks,and isn't hard at all to replace,also ,make sure the dash is grounded good,i have owned 4 of these cars and two of them lost ground making me think it was the resistor bad,good luck with it,i hope this help,s.

.First check your instrument fuse, second there is a resistor behind the dash panel that could be bad check both places,next you can take a volt meter and see if you have any voltage going to the gas sender or the oil sender make sure the wires are disconnected before checking.

Take it out and take the flow and gas gage component off of the proper of it and sparkling it out authentic strong. Use carburetor cleanser and run it with the help of the lines. Or replace previous lines. Then placed it decrease back jointly and placed gas in it. make effective each and every of the lines and trash is out of your gas tank. also get a clean gas filter out.

it is highly unlikely that the sensors stopped working at the same time, your circuit board in the back of the gauge cluster is tired out and you probably need a new speedometer assembly.

Check your fuses.!They may be on the same fuse which for whatever reason has blown out or came loose.

it could be the ignition switch that sends them voltage when the key is on :(

check the earth wire . if it has come off or is broken it will give you the problem that you describe.
