My gauges have not been working for a little while the cluster lights works fine however none of the gauges work (Speedo,tach, oil pressure,temp)?

Fuses have been checked and nothing wrong there?

Please help. Thank you.

There are some known issues with the digital gauges, and there is a company I remember reading somewhere that rebuilds these clusters?? Sorry I can't recal the name, I'll do some searches and see what I can find. It may be a good option for you.

There is a guy on Ebay that rebuilds them for $149. I have not personally used him (I don't have digital), but he has good reviews from the EBay users.
The info is below, or you can check EBay yourself.
Good Luck

I have fully rebuilt clusters available. Call 1-860-583-0629 9:00AM - 6:00PM Eastern time only, with any questions or free technical support. Ask for Carl

I also found this article on the Corvette Magazine website. It discusses diagnosing and fixing it yourself, check it out.

You can send your dash to be re-conditioned Check the Ecklers catalog, Mid-America corvettes, Corvette central olot of these catalogs will send you a new dash for your old CORE dash

Check any grounds .I had a loose ground wire on my '86 that would knock out my tach and speedo If I hit a bad bump in the road.

Have you done this? How was the quality of the re-conditioned one?

Everyone thanks for all the help on this question!

My 87 convertible cluster simply faded out from the Florida sun. Ken Anderson of K&B Special Products in Alpharetta, GA replaced all 3 displays for $615 back in July '08. You can reach Ken at 770-777-1031.
