I had similar problems on my panel gauges on dash not working....everything seems to running of working OK but does not show it on my gauges on dash.
Someone posted a bullentin and told me to check your EDC (Electronic Data Controller)Black Box which was located (if you are facing the back of your coach)on the left side of your engine.
Of course this may be a difference because I have a Allegro Buss 2002 with a Catepilla Engine?
My instruction were to remove this box disconnecting all electrical plugs going to it plus two air lines which controls your air gauges on the dashboard.
I did all of that, brought the Box (12 X 12") in the house and removed top and located by instructions that some of the Sorta had broke or cracked and that is where my problem may be. I could not tell by the naked eye so I took it to a radio/electronic shop and had them check it out and showed it had 3 out of 5 terminals cracked...Took him about 5 minutes to correct, went back home installed everything back, inserted electrical plugs and air lines back and "WOW" everything is working and has every since which was about 7-8 months ago.
If I did not attempt to do this myself, I was getting ready to spend $850.00 to purch a new EDC box. Sometimes we have to take a chance?
Hope this helps.....
