Thanks Rowan, well heres whats up now, ok, well, since the car was temporarily working fine with everything, I decided to put more gas in the car. The fuel level gauge goes all the way to the top (this is after 2 gallons added to the +- 1/4 tank ive got already in there)...so, I went to the trunk and took the black wire off,(the one with 2 connectors but only uses one) and cleaned it, and put it back on. Ok, and my stupidity, I realize that the battery is still connected while I had done that. Anyways, once again the instrument panel doesent work. BUT here's the difference...the inside fan, and the radiator fan, both work with the instrument panel acting up. Anyways, so I look at the fuse box and see the same color (tan, and brown, wires going to fuse number 4) The tan and brown wires were the other two wires (along with the black) that go to the fuel level gauge in the trunk. So, I clean them off/ play around with it, and (this time I'm more cautious and have the battery disconnected) and turn the key to the K position, and guess what, the instrument panel is back on, BUT the fuel level gauge is still registering 'off the chart' as full...any suggestions?, Also im looking into those wires (the white one that you mentioned) that come from the ignition relay right now....
