I have a '94 GXE and when I bought it, the temperature gauge and the fuel gauge did not work. The temp. gauge does not register at all. The fuel gauge registers 1/4 of a tank all the time. Could this be a fuse problem or do these gauges even have fuses? These two gauges may not share the same problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I seriously doubt it is a fuse. With a fuse, it would be all or nothing usually and I dont think it would be the cause of that anyway.

I'm not sure what else to look for, but dont waste your time looking through all the fuses Sorry I can't be of more help

The fuel pump sender might cause the fuel gauge not to read. For the temp guage it's either a bad connection or the temp sensor on the engine is bad. If you have a haynes or FSM there are steps to check both of these out.
