Stop yelling we can hear you.

Question, do all the other dash lights work, is it just the cluster illumination that does not?

If other dash illumination lights work, [heater control panel, CC, rear defog, hazard switches and so on] and it is only the cluster illumination that is not working, you will need to pull the cluster and test for power, [when park/head lights are on] on the red/black lead, if there is test for ground on the red lead, [ground potential will change as you rotate the "Dash Lights Brightness Controller.
If you have power, [red/black] and ground, [red] check the bulbs, [although it is unlikely that all 7 have blown at the same time] if they are good check for damage, [burnt traces] on circuit board and make sure the cluster plug(s) is properly plugged in and making a good connection. 94
