Well, the back of the console is fed by a pair of plugs that feed signals to the sensors via this sheet of plastic with metal traces on it (kinda like a flexible circuit board). Chances are, some water got in there and is shorting the leads from the tach into the temp guage and taking the juice from the ammeter. Since you didnt mention the fuel or oil guages going haywire, I would say the plug torwards the drivers side is the culprit. Check the traces from here. I think a visual inspection should reveal some burnt plastic.

Have fun!
