HELP!!! Gauge cluster went out?!

hey guys, so i was driving my fd last night and everything was fine. I wake up this morning to go to class and i noticed my stock oil pressure gauge was reading 0 and my turn signals weren't working (but the hazard lights were). After class i noticed all of my gauges were not working, even the odometer. The lights were working but the needles werent going anywhere. Any ideas?
thanks,
Craig

check the meter fuse. I bet your reverse lights won't work either. did you do any mods under the hood recently?

did you ever get this solved if not I have had the same issue. Here was my problem I have done many mods to my car and one day the same thing happened. This will help others out in the near future too. Me and my friend both went through the wiring diagram and the 15a fuse runs alot of stuff but for the cluster it had a shared source coming from the fuse to the cluster to the tranny reverse sensor in the tranny. I unplugged the tranny wires and pulled it out and my tranny wires were stuck between the dump pipe of my wastegate and my tranny and melted 5 wires together causing a grounding issue. I detached them away from eachother and reconnected them and wallaaaaa my gauges signals and everything was in working order again. that was my issue yours should be too far from that.

if its not the fuse or if the fuse kept popping like mine then youll know you have a short some where let me know if you need any more help on this matter.
