Jeff,
Try the Maxifuse/Relay Center located under the hood. The inside of the cover has a chart that explains the features and controls governed by each fuse and relay. You probably have already discovered that there should be 3 main fuse panels; namely, (1) the instrument panel fuse block and (2&3) 2 (driver's side and passenger side) rear compartment fuse blocks. The "fuse block instrument panel" has fuses arranged in rows with 4 across and 7 down. Upper left hand corner = #1 fuse, uppper right hand corner = #4 fuse, etc.
Look at fuse #17 which is the 1st one in the 5th row from the top. This is the "Driver Instrument Center" one.
P.S. There should be a fuse puller clipped to the inside of teh cover to the fuse box unless it's been "misplaced".
Hope this helps.

Hey there! Thank you for your suggestion, we tried it and it didn't help:(! I just don't know what else it could be, I guess I am going to have to take it to the shop and see. Anymore suggestions on what it could be?

Hey there! Ok, I figured it out myself before I went and spent money! There are 2 fuse boxes under the back seat and it was my instrument panel fuse blown! I did need a new battery too, so I got a new battery! But I fixed my gages! THank you so much, you were a big help!

Power window problems 1998 Aurora by volkyl1

I am new to the forum. In researching old posts I found similar problems and answers but not exactly the same. I have a 1998 Aurora with 212000 miles. Suddenly all power windows and the sunroof stopped working. I checked the circuit breaker under the rear seat. It was very hot to the touch. I thought it might be bad so I exchanged it for an identical circuit breaker that protected a different circuit. It also didn't fix the problem and got very hot. I put the original breaker into the non-power window circuit and it worked fine.
 
Has anyone had this happen, and better yet found out what was wrong?

Lights Stay On by karrrazy

Hi,
What is the part called and where is it located that controls the auto lamps. My lights were staying on so I pulled the fuses to turn them off. When I re-installed the fuses the problem was solved but I know it will happen again.
Thanks for any help.

Nevermind, I just noticed brinwoods detailed fix-it.
Guess I'll have to go and tear it apart.
When I'm done I guess I'll owe Brin one of "his" favorite beverages!
Thanks.

Try rotating the tires. In an "X" pattern.

Should run 228 in traffic. Thats when the fans come on. This is what it is designed to run at for maximum emissions reduction.

Remove the air duct to the throttle-body and clean the bore and throttle blade with a red-rag and some carburetor cleaner.

I have a 2001 Aurora and I am having a problem with the DIC as well. When I start my car at night I can see the information center is faintly working. Do you have any advice on how I can brighten the DIC information?
