    Hey all!

    newbie here - first post! Thanks for all the help I’ve already received through reading old forums and thanks in advance for any help here.

    I am not very car savvy in any way and got some help with my spark plugs from a friend. All went well with the install of those and truck is running well. Issue is the dash board and all the gauges will not power on. There is absolutely no power to them and the speedometer, gas, rpm, all the displays just stay on 0. Have checked a few fuses and all looks good on the ones I have checked, but may have missed the right one.

    blinkers , hazards, also do not work. Brake lights do

    When I got the battery hooked back in after we were done with the plugs, there was a little spark. Not sure if that can be a cause. I’ve never had this issue before and all we unhooked was the plugs..

    Welcome!
    I haven’t done this job yet, so I am just guessing, but I would go through your work and see if you left, or accidentally, disconnected a wire connection.

    Did you move or disconnect anything when doing the spark plugs? Sounds like a power distribution connection somewhere possibly.
