    Default Instrument cluster went out?

    So I've checked out the back of the cluster and everything is hooked up right, but for some reason just the gauge lights and a/c control lights are out. I removed one of the lights earlier today, but when I put it back in this happened. I've checked fuses and wires, but can't find anything wrong. Any ideas?

    Check your fuses, Im willing to bet your taillights are not working when you turn the lights on aswell.

    i have LEDs bulbs in my cluster, and i removed one and put it back in yesterday and after that it wouldn't work. is it possible that one bulb could kill the whole circuit?

    i swapped the bulb back but it's been too bright outside for me to see if it fixed it or not lol. i'm thinking of replacing the dimmer i guess if this doesn't work.
