I would look at the bcm as that controls the gauges. no heat could be a few things. Thermostat for one, or a bad mode valve. would need to chack operation of them.

If you can access the diagnostic mode, you might find a code dealing with the display problem. I had a '87 Seville with this symptom , and it turned out to be the central power supply module.
