all my gauges died out of nowhere

i’ve had my fc for 2 months now, the odo/speedo and gas gauge didn’t work when i bought it(frayed tranny speed cable) neither did the warning lights.

3 days ago after i wasn’t able to drive the car for a few days.i went to go start it and all my gauges weren’t working but i turned my brights on to see if the lights in the gauge cluster still worked and they did. took warning light panel out first and cleaned off all the connections for the bulbs. while doing that thought i noticed one of the capacitors on the board had been broken off the solder(maybe by me lol) then got into the dash and cleaned out the connections for the gauges. once i put everything back together it all worked despite the capacitor.

until today when i went to turn the car on and the lights came on like normal then shut off, did the same thing i did last time and nothing. i checked the meter fuse and it has power and it isn’t blown.

if any of you could help it would be greatly appreciated!
