M915A1 Gauges quit registering

[Old Lincoln County Iron]

I had my M915A1 Tractor out for a drive today, since it has been very cold I wanted to drive it around abit keep the batteries up, etc. After about 2 miles
I made a stop and got out of the truck, when I got back in the Engine temp, fuel, transmission temp, voltage, and oil pressure gauge had stop registering.
Anybody have this happen? Any recommendations to the best place to start looking? I did notice at night before the illumination in these gauges also was
not working (the gauges were registering at that time). I am going out of town for afew days so I dont have time to look for the problem nor research it
so I thought I'd ask the experts for a possible quick remmidy for this situation.
Lord knows I dont want this rolling over in my head all the time I am gone.
Thanks!

I had that on my M920 when I first got it and found my alternator belts way loose . actually 1 had jumped off and the other was't driving the alternator.So the voltage had dropped below 11 volts and the gauges went dead. Check your belts and your charging system.

That was a common occurance with my first M915....usually turning the ignition switch off and on a couple of times would fix it....just a
grimlin unique to the series I guess.

sometimes the gauge panel(or gauges themselves) dosent ground well to the dash. It might be worth running a jumper wire to ground it better...or fiddle around with the latch screws on the panel

WOW. And my first assumption was a fuse. Had that happen on my Mercedes.
