    I was driving home in my '94 LHS this afternoon when I noticed the
    speedometer was not working. I looked around and none of the gauges were
    working. The trip computer was also dead. The radio was working. When I
    got home, I found that a 5 amp fuse had blown. I replaced it, only to
    have it blow again 2 secs after the car started.

    Any ideas?

    Not sure if this makes any difference, but I just replaced the battery two
    days ago.

    Thanks,
    -Ron

    Sounds like a short in the dash ckt. The simpliest thing to check would be
    that a bulb for the dash has shorted internally and is causing the short.
    Also more likely would be a wiring issue with the power somewhere there.
    You could try disconnecting things one at a time and just measure with an
    ohm meter to ground as you do and when the resistance increases you would
    have found your shorted item.

    That's a terrific way to start a car-be-que.
