Default Gauge cluster problem!

So i tried installing a Vtec light so after everything was done and said... the RPM, Speed meter, Gas, and Temperature doesn't work anymore. Lights work on the cluster and turn signals work just fine. Starting up the car the check light doesn't come on no more. Whats the problem and how can i solve this. This is bringing me lots of headache

Edit: Cluster is 99-00 Si

Uhh, retrace what you did to make them not work. Maybe you shorted something in the process.

The lights on the cluster still works and the signals still work... i don't understand why none of the gauges are working.

Yes i did, i made sure everything was in tightly. Thats why the lights work but not the meeters. I don't get why all the gauges would be dead...?

Took the frame apart and put in a light for when vtec engages, the light turns on. I used an empty slot next to the engine check light.

You were right, it was the fuse. But came up with another problem, the Fuel keeps reading Full tank but i know i don't even have a full tank.
