Re: All sorts of problems?

Check your dimmer switch after you test the fuse(s). My dash lights didn't work because the switch was fried. You can by pass the switch fairly easy. Losen up the center vent control portion of your dash (it makes it easier to see the switch and the wires). Simply unplug the wires leading to the switch and connect them together.
As far as the speedometer goes, check the connection to the transmission and confirm the cable isn't broken and actually connected. Not sure beyond that.
Make sure your exhaust is flowing freely. A clogged or restricted CAT can get real hot.
Hope this helps.
