Default gauge cluster went out.HELP!!!

I have a 1992 honda civic vx. Well I was driving down the street the other day and all of my gauges just fell.The weird thing is that my blinkers wont work the needles on the gauges wont move but my hazzards work.when i turn on my headlights on the cluster lights up.but the only light on the cluster that works is the battery light and srs.my brake light dont work with the e brake is on the check engine light dont work.but all my other electronics are fine haedlights tails and reverse.

I have checked all of the fuses I can think of.I also checked all the relays and fueses by the battery under the hood and none are bad.I even tryed a new cluster and the cluster worked in the car I took it from but when it was in my car It did the same thing that mine is doing.

Is there any hidden fuses or somthing? the only ones I know of are under the hood by the battery and the pannel under the dash on the left kinda by the hood relese.


ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPREACIATTED. I am about to just take it to the shop.

The only thing that I know of is if you have an aftermarket radio in the car and the illumination wire shorts to ground it blows a fuse in the fuse block and you loose all the dash and rear tail lights. but I think all the gauges still work. Its been years since I had that problem

Eh.... blinkers not working means either your hazard lights button is d/c, you fried a wire, or you blew a fuse that you have yet to check.

As far as the cluster goes... same thing except you don't need to check your hazard button.

Check your 'backup light fuse' or a fuse that is called something similar.
