Hey all,
Tonight while driving at work, I lost everything but my speedometer on the gauge cluster on my 1989 v6 5 speed. Turn signals stopped working too, as well as my manually wired reverse lights(the switch in the trans is busted). The battery light came on as well. The alternators is only a month old (refurb). I was too exhausted to take a look at it, after work and google has found me nothing. I'm gonna get down and dirty tomorrow, but figured I'd ask here for some advice first. Any ideas? It still drives fine, I started it and turned it off atleast 10-15 times since it happened(I'm a delivery driver) and everything else seems to be working fine.
Thanks for reading, and let me know if you have any suggestions on what to check out besides the obvious(alternator, battery).

Might just get lucky and need a new fuse for the dashlights. I don't know 89's, but there is a chance your alt light is also on that fuse.

The weirdest part is, everything is still lit up. It just not getting any input from any of the sensors for each gauge dial.
