sounds electrical.
I would start checking fuses as REnesis mentioned and also check the wires to the PCM box. Maybe something got loose?

have checked all the fuses .all are ok.the full meter is nonfunctional.checked all the wiring harnesses.new battery.links are clean.mechanical function is normal.had the meter removed and checked the connection.could not find any fault.
