Default HelpWanted: Electrical Mishap

I recently got my EG6 gauge cluster back from a buddy of mine. I lent it to him to use for tuning purposes since his DX cluster doesnt have a tach on it. well, it worked in my car perfectly fine prior to letting him borrow it, and it worked fine in his car while he was using it. So, this morning i go to reinstall it in my car only to find that nothing works on it what so ever. the turn signals dont light up when active, neither do the hazards. The speedo worked for like a mintue and after that the cluster just fell on its face. Can anyone help me trouble shoot this problem? Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks.

My bet is loose plug or a bent pin.
