7740 gremlins

After solving a problem with the dip beam blowing its fuse, I have now noticed the fuel and temp gauge are not working .
All fuses look intact............looking for inspiration.

what type of instrument panel, fuel gauge, i assume you have two tanks turn ign on and disconnect wire on either tank and check with multimeter to see if you have any supply same with temp i think fuse 10 is supply voltage to dash is that ok.

Them electric dashes are pigs to keep free from errors etc

you could have a dodgy earth or a bare wire somewhere

Manual dashes on the specials were much more reliable.

.....started to check tank wires as suggested and.............. found the issue immediately, wire had come off the spade connector.

It has the analogue dash fortunately, it does seem to have wiring issues tho....

Thanks all..............will probably be back soon.....

Old style dashes don’t normally give bother.

Suggest you check earth strap between can floor and top cover, multipin connectors under front right of cab, remove cab floor mat and tin cover check loom and l/h side dash panel near clutch pedal and oblong panel check dash loom they can rub through, all types of instrument panels normally do not give any problems, it's plug's, sensor's and wiring terminal's that can be a problem a good electrical cleaner can help but remember it will not remove corrosion .
