The dashboard gauges just went off (which displays speed, fuel gauge, mileage, Trip and clock)

Other lights like indicator & OBD lights are working. A roadside mechanic confirmed that all fuses and the battery is ok. what could be wrong? where can i get it fixed? The car is a 01 Toyota Platz.

you have a problem with your diagnostic method ...largely due to the "roadside mechanic" part.
Peleka gari to an established shop, you have probably blown a fuse and the road mech missed it, or one of the pluggable connections is loose or dirty.
Do plazt have an OBD port?

thanks @quicksand. My reason for going to roadside mec is coz i thought its a simple quick fix, like dirty battery terminals. After the mec failed to established the problem, he said we need to open up the dashboard, which of course i couldn't agree!!

they platz do have a OBD port, u can recommend a good shop?
