bad bulbs.... or if you have a short the gauge lights won't work and you will also have no rear lights so turn on the lights and see if the rear lights work if so its the bulbs in the cluster

combination switch is probably bad

had a similar problem,
1. Take off the steering wheel and the plastic covers.
2. Unplug harness on the Combination switch
3. Check for continuity on the switch, shouldnt have more than a 1.0 ohms resistance.
4. Change switch, if necessary, be careful not to bend the pins....otherwise the solder inside will break and will be inopperable, thats what kept me puzzled...Good luck
