Fuel gauge, temp gauge, tach, signals, not working

Well the wires are now broken off the reverse switch so I put it back in and will order new reverse switch. The wiring harness seems clean all the way through so I don't know where that short is. So we have to figure out another time

Fuel gauge, temp gauge, tach, signals, not working

But wait! I tested for continuity again and there is continuity between the blue red wire and ground with and without the lapse connected so therefore I have to find the ground a short between the bullet connecters and the rear lamps

Fuel gauge, temp gauge, tach, signals, not working

Tested continuity between red and blue wire and ground and there's no continuity. If I'm using a multimeter right. It's set on a little symbol that looks like a Wi-Fi symbol. The terminals are in the appropriate holes. Not getting any beeps.

Fuel gauge, temp gauge, tach, signals, not working

If I'm using the multimeter right there's no continuity between the contacts on the switch. I guess that means the switch is faulty. Gonna get out and try to clean it up

Update: fuse blows when I put the manual transmission in reverse.
Blows with lamps unplugged. Lamps are LED by the way

Fuel gauge, temp gauge, tach, signals, not working

I'm sort of of the mind that since it's working with a 25a fuse to just leave it alone. I've already spent a lot of time on this and might move on. Unless y'all are really itching for resolution? Thanks for all the help. All the folks in this thread are delica.ca vets. I was very active in here in t...

Fuel gauge, temp gauge, tach, signals, not working

Dashboard lights and hazards never quit working. The 15a fuse for turn signals burned. I replaced it but it burned again. I hadn't realized that it burned again but I did check again just looking without taking it out. You could barely see the break. Front signal bulbs were corroded so I cleaned the...

Fuel gauge, temp gauge, tach, signals, not working

Ok. SO: The fuse was busted. Which makes me seem like a total idiot. BUT: The new fuse busted right away. I'm sure I swapped the fuse first. But it burned out so quickly, that I didn't even have a chance to know that it was that. Now I have another mystery to solve. Why is the fuse burning out? Gonn...

Ok. Got it. Also got a instrument cluster, combination switch, and all the fusible link stuff off a parts van.

Fuel gauge, temp gauge, tach, signals, not working

Thanks so much for the attention and detailed help! I guess I should remove each fusible link and put a wire between them to test then, eh?
