I was driving along all of a sudden all of the "dummie lights" came on then the speedometer, odometer, rpm, gas, and temp gauges quit working. I checked the fuses with a multimeter all seem to be fine. any help??

Have you checked the body control module? This controls all the lighting and such. You will need a digital multi meter and maybe a scanner. get back to me and we will go from there.

I'm not sure what that is. I have tested the fuses with a dig multimeter though.

Ok the BCM or body control module is on the right hand side or passenger side of the car behind the kick panel. It is used to store things like odometer info and electonic instrument cluster display as well as provide power and grounds to things like the lights and interior lighting door lock and etc. With that said lets do some checking to see what happened.
First I need you to check fuse numer 17 if it is good then get your digital multi meter and check voltage going to it. Let me know what you find and we go to the next step ok.
