Yes

For that many systems to have stopped working I'm guessing that it is one of the big ones on top of the battery or a broken lead to the battery.

Before searching for fuses, which I doubt we can help with on the Catera anyway, just try giving the top of the binnacle a firm push to ensure it is seated properly

I may have mistranslated the original post but I thought it said that the climate system (hot, cold and fan) were also not working.

Ok... My mistake :-[ I interpreted it as temp gauge not working ::)

The binnacle is the instrument cluster but if Climate Fan has stopped then it's more likely to be a fuse. As said, probably in the engine bay near the battery but could be in normal fuse box :-\ You'll need to read the manual ;)

I've had the same problem while driving back from Cornwall and while crawling through traffic, noticed the speedo stuck at 30mph and everything else  dead.Doing a voltage check didn't show any fault, but checking each fuse did. For some reason, the electric windows and the dash share the same fuse, as well as the sunroof. Hope this helps. :y
