Well, none of the gauges work. No speedo, gas, or temp. I checked all the fuses, and even pulled the cluster and checked all the wiring and grounds.
I pulled the temp sending unit plug, and I have 5.3 volts for a feed signal. when I plug it back in and check the voltage again from the other side of the plug, there's no voltage. (sending unit short?) I tried shorting the feed and reference lines, and got nothing on the gauge.
Words of wisdom? I don't have a book for the car, my dad just bought it for better mpg, so we haven't got one yet.

hey andrew my 91 supercoupe had a computer under the dash on the drivers side i belive it was. if its loose or has gotten kicked to many times it may be the problem. i just dont know how much the supercoupes and regulars are as they have a whole different electrical system in some places.
About autozone parts..... to me they're sh__, the cheapest ones anyway.
I always have better luck from Napa, and if I can't get it there, then O'Reillys (if it's something common, and not something I get off the internet or broncograveyard).

hey guys update on the diesel ranger idea, well dads not real fond of buy another ranger right now, BUT he brought up that i could use his 98 DD for the swap if i got serious about it, hed rather wait till next summer to do but i think if i can get a good deal on a cummins 4bt hed go for it this summer, any idea where to start looking, looks like it would just be staying 2wd for now so what could i do the the stock 2wd ranger front end to make it beefier to handle the extra weight of the 4bt till i can get the money to sas it? any ideas where to find a 4bt at?
