My speedometer, tachometer and odometer all stopped working at the same time in my 2011 Hyundai Elantra (with manual transmission).

My analog tachometer and speedometer needles don't move. My digital odometer doesn't increment (for either of the trip counters nor the total number of miles.) My digital fuel gauge also shows no reading. (However my digital temperature gauge IS working.)

My check engine light does not come on and the lights to the gauges still will work fine. It's not a battery problem.

I hooked up a Bluetooth ODB2 dongle and ran the Android "Torque" app. I did not have any ODB2 errors and the app WAS able to show me my both my speed and RPMs in real time. (I'm not sure about the fuel level.)

The dealer said it would be about $500 just to trace the electrical system which is NOT a viable option. Any ideas would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Not sure about your model car, but on older cars this would almost certainly be a burned-out fuse. Ask around and/or do some online research for fuses in your car, or just take it to a local auto parts store and ask them if they will look at it. It would take less than five minutes to find out. If it's not that, then you need to go to the dealer.

I had a similar problem with my 2013 Hyundai Elantra with the RPMS and loss of power, and it was the crankshaft position sensor that was faulty.
