Have you checked the ground wire for the instrument cluster? I can' t remember where it is, I had similar troubles with the backlight of my cluster.

Also fuses? Obviously you have.

The nuts on the back of the gauges where it tightens to the back of the cluster tight?

You can always Jimmy wires from the sensors etc to check if its a break in the wiring somewhere, i tried following mine to the relays etc and somewhere was still not working

so jimmied some test wires and presto they work so just found somewhere were the gauge was getting powered and just added my wire to bypass the break

Have you pulled out the Service Indicator board and checked it's OK? The batteries on these die and can leak acid onto the circuit board causing havoc with the gauges.
