checkthe grounds under the dash on the passenger side that holds the lower part of the dash to the dash frame. otherwise you may have already done this but check fuses, all of them with a test light. good luck.

U may have done this already but pull the instrument panel and check to make sure the fibre optic sheet is plugged in, it controls all lights and gauges in the dash except speedo. Also PDL have a dual plug that goes right into the fuse box lower right corner.
