Just happened all of a sudden. I can hear a slight buzz or hum inside the dash on the left side of the instrument panel near the front dash speaker.

Is there an ice cube relays that can cause these gauges not to work?

New one on me. I will do a search. Doesn't appear to be a fuse.

Other than that the 260e is chirping along with 212k.

Oops instead of alternator, I should have said tachometer.

It was fuse #5... i did the search and found that to be the cause..

I didn't know the fuse was bad at first.. It's probably original.

It was the dash humming that got me down the wrong path.

Always do a search and always look to fuses as being the root evil.
