2005 340 Sundancer, started the engines up after being anchored for a few hours and none of the guages for either side are working. No tachs, fuel, oil pres., speedos etc. I think it might be a fuse but can't find it.
 
Actually I just fixed this very problem yesterday. My analog gauges are connected to my smartcraft system and one of the plugs that connects them was loose. Just pull the panels and separate and re-seat all of the plugs you find going to the gauges. Hope the same works for you.
 
I've been having this issue also with my port gauges. I have pulled and reseated all connections. Even cleaned them and use dieelectric grease where necessary. Still have issues. Sometimes they work and sometimes they don't. Frustrating.

That sounds like a different problem where it is just one side. My issue was both sides just went out and it was due to the loose connection as the "analog" gauges only take a feed from the smartcraft...they are not directly connected to the engines. They are more for appearance. If you have smartcraft or vessel view and that is working correctly I still fee the problem has to be in the connection.
 
I agree and to clarify - the System View loses the port side data, which does not send signal to gauges. I have cleaned the System view terminals and the connector at the SIM module on the port engine.. Driving me nuts!
