Darl,

I'm going by memory from something I think I picked up a long time ago so it may not be accurate. Some of the dash functions are controlled by some of the relays or breakers in the rear. As you mentioned you do not hear the click when the key is turned on but that indicates to me that a CB tripped or one of the relays is not functioning. Since the rear start also does not function you should look for a relay or breaker common to both front and rear start.

I'll poke around in the AM also and pull up some wiring diagrams if they are readable. It has to be something simple.
