In an attempt to diagnose a fuel gauge, I have disassembled the instrument cluster. While I was trying to figure out what pin the fuel sending unit yellow/white wire connected to, I must have shorted out the gauge power. At first, when I turned the key on, I could measure 12v across the pins and all the engine lights would come normally, but now I get nothing.

I can't find any associated fuse in the fuse box, and none are blown. Is there a fuse somewhere for the cluster power?
