Default Speedo, and tach dont work *problem fixed*

On the way home today my tach and speedo stopped working. My blinkers also stopped working from the switch, but work if I use the hazard button. I dont have a clue as to what the problem is because its dark and I cant really do anything til morning. Please help ASAP, I cant afford much down time. TIA

i know the speed-o is fed from the speed sensor on my series 1. i think yours is the same. and the tach signal is fed from the icm.

they both went out at the same time?

The only things that I can find in common are: the ign1 fuse in the rear fuse block, and ground 201 which on the passenger side interior foot well area, I believe behind the kick panel. Interestingly, the hazards use the same power and ground as the turn signal.

Under the rear seat is the fuse block you need to check. Check #12.
