Default Vette dashboard

Hi, I am new to this site and just got an '86 vette. As usual, everything is broke and I need help.
1st, the dash works but is so bright that I cant see the speed or tach, even at night. Everything is on, just backlit too much I think.
2nd, the oil temp and water temp just read Lo, is this the sending unit?
3rd, the rear hatch release button won't open it, so I pushed the manual release button, and it still won't open, now what?
4th, A/C fan won't work on hi, I put a new relay in, and it still won't work.
Thanks in advance for any help. :nopity

Welcome to the forum. There's probably several reasons that could be the fault for your problems. Use the search feature on the left of your screen to check past postings. Also, if you are going to be doing your own work, you should get a GM shop manual which shows step by step troubleshooting.
