Default OD, Speedometer, and some other stuff

This whole thing is really driving me off wall.

It all started with a broken speedometer-so i replaced the VSS checked the gears and made sure it had 8v to it- no luck- replaced the ABS sensor-no luck-then my whole cluster stopped working! There is no obvious loose ground.

I need to drive across country at the end of the week and i'm beginning to get worried. I tried briefly to wire a switch for he OD so i could at least get to highway speed, but didn't have any luck.

Can anyone give a hint as to what to try next? Or if you have any idea about how to get the OD solenoid on a manual switch?

thanks,
dan g.

Sounds like a PCM or voltage issue to the PCM but I don't know if the 92 trucks had one back that far.

Our 92 has a pcm. It controls the O.D shift, cruise control and is the regulator for the alternator. It sounds like a broken wire in the harness somewhere. If it will help I have the factory manual on C.D. that I can send wiring diagrams to you. Ours started acting up before I got the manual and I added an outside voltage regulator and hydraulic switch for the O,D shift.

I don't know how much they cost but it is located inside the left front fender behind the battery.
