2006 Tahoe Q6 S/F, Guages Problem

[joneslt353]

I love my boat. Have owned it for three years and it is garage stored.

Took it out for the first time this season and all of the guages have stopped working. Everything else, electrically, onboard is working fine. I replaced all of the fuses on the fuse panel (3, 5 and 10 amp), which equalled a total of 10 fuses. That didn't solve the problem. I tried tracing the wire harness back, but could not find an inline fuse.

My owner's manual (dated 2004) shows a wiring diagram with a fuse panel consisting of 14 fuses. Go figure.

Can anyone pleases advise? Thank you in advance,

Larry

Is yours the 4.3 MPi or 5.o MPI? These have fuses back near the electronic module in the engine compartment.

My 07 Q6 gauges sometimes do that I found the connections under the dash just rattled loose I took of the wire ends and crimped them a bit more. try turning on the key and rattling the wires while looking at the dash sounds amateur but it worked for me...

Sparks Boat...you're post was exactly correct. Thank you. I had my buddy launch the boat while I was setting up my camper to kick Memorial Day weekend. He comes back to tell me my boat won't start. I calmly walk down to assess and found the that a 8-pin connector had come loose. Now the boat starts and the guages work fine.
