Lost all Dash gauges and odometer

This afternoon while putting my Ex (03 Limited, V10) into gear all my gauges and odometer on the dash became inoperative. They were working fine when I left the house earlier in the day I pulled into a spot,ran into a store while my wife waited in the truck and when I went to put it in gear I lost the dash. When I got home I changed fuse 35 and 41 10A , which the manual states control the instrument cluster with no luck, I also tried the disconnect the battery trick with negative results. ANY ideas? Thanks , any assistance would bet greatly appreciated

Check fuse 45.

... and problems associated with the overdrive switch shorting out can cause that issue as well. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...tch-short.html

If not that, try disconnecting the battery for a couple of hours. That might be what fixed my Fuel gauge?

Fuse 45 was the problem. Wound have never though to look at that one! Will do the overdrive shifter repair in the near future. Thank you DavenTn for the advise. Reps sent
