Re: guage cluster issues
Can you explain again what works and what doesn't? Your description isn't clear, at least to me.

Re: guage cluster issues
It seems like either there is a connection issue on the back of the cluster where the light bulbs tie in and are not getting power or you have multiple dead bulbs. On the back side, they just twist out and you can test them or put power to them and verify whether the bulbs are good or bad. Otherwise the cluster circuit grid/panel has issues or needs cleaning.
