Gauges are out! Help!

Hi guys. Long time no post.

Well I was out practicing last night and all of a sudden my stock Tach and all the
other gauges to the left of it just went dead. As well as the center clock. I figured it could just be a bad connection but the speedometer is still working. I just had my new exhaust put on. Pacesetter cat-back and an aftermarket cat, pluss I just replaced the pre-cats with a streight pipe. I couldn't find replacements for them and I figured the were a waste of space. They had tons of holes in them too.

Well, I have yet to remove the gauge cluster and check the cables because I lack the proper tools currently. I already have face replacements for that too.

But any ways, if this has happened to any one please help me out. I'm afrade to take it too my mechanic because the engine temp. gauge is out and thats my car's lifeline.

Thanks.

My tach is also dead along with water temp and oil pressure. I believe boost gauge still works but not too sure as I don't really want to drive her. Which fuse(s) are you referring to? Is it the "Meter" fuse on the inside block?
