    You could have blown a fuse, or have a coincidental speed sensor failure. Does it run/drive ok?

        Sometimes it can be the connector for the dials itself, itll involve takin dials out to look at back cos sometimes contacts get bad and need cleaned or replaced

              That's what I was thinking, the old 2 fuse box trick... Sneaky little f*****s!

                  Strange.

                  The fuse for the gauges is a 10A one, in the fusebox by the gas pedal.
                  A flashing O/D light means there's a fault with the transmission.
                  Theres a diagnostics how-to here.....http://www.toyotasurf.asn.au/techsit...odiagnosis.pdf

                    And gauges not working shows up as a transmission fault...
