So, on top of my clusters doesn’t work at all, it doesn’t show my speed or my gas level, or even my temperature level. The only thing that works is the turn signals light inductors. The bottom clusters work great, everything shows. Also, they are both digital.

Chances are the cluster is going out. We should check the fuses first.

Here is a guide to help:

If the fuses are good here is how to change the cluster out, you can get a preprogrammed unit by searching Google or Ebay. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.

Yep, it looks like it needs to be rebuilt.

Now I replaced the cluster with a brand new one but still won’t turn on the gauges just the turn signals that’s works. Now I’m thinking it’s a grounding problem or a wiring problem?

Okay, here is a guide to help you test the grounds and power with the cluster wiring diagrams below so you can see which wires to test and how the system works.
