Unhappy

Hi all I'm new here I have a savanaa GTR FC3S

My oil preasure gauge does not work and the sender is not the problem ,So I disconnested the meter(clocks) and cleaned the back of the circuit however I didn't disconnect the battery .Now my oil preasure gauge still isn't working neither is my tracometer or my electric windows .

Is there a main fuse for the meters ?

How could disconnecting the meters stop my electic windows from working ?

Should I remove the circuit and check my gauges ?

Any help would be much appricated

Thanks

Darren

in the fuse box under the dash there is a fuse for the meters, its called the meter fuse. if the fuse is bad ALL of the meters except the speedo will be dead.



since the windows dont work either, i'd be looking at maybe the grounds.
