Tach, Fuel Gauge, Temp Gauge, Oil Pressure Gauge, Alternator Quit Working

1989 SR5 V6

While driving today the Fuel Gauge, Oil Pressure Gauge, Temp Gauge, Amp Gauge, Tach and Alternator all stopped working at the same time and I can't figure out what the deal is. I can't find any blow fuses, links or anything.

Any ideas? I mean all the instruments plus the alternator quit working at the same time. There has to be some issue central to the gauges and the Tach. I don't have a wiring diagram so I can't figure out what wire or fuse is common to the instruments and alternator. The blinkers and the rear window switch in the cockpit also quit working at the same time by the way.

Thank you for any advice,
Kirk

Just had this issue in my Camry. Trace the wiring harness and look for a block of wires melted against something.

It turns out that it was a blown fuse. When i turn on my blinker, it blows the fuse labelled "Engine" in the driver's kick pannel.

Not sure why the fuse for the blinker and instrament cluster is labelled "Engine" but it is.

Now to figure why the blinker blows the fuse.

R or L blinker or both? I have 2 wiper/head light switches for sale if that's the issue.
