Default Dash is out! Speedo, blinkers, odometer, ebrake light all not working!

I drive a 92 civic hatch

For whatever reason my entire guage cluster is pretty dead. None of the guages seem to be working and not even my ebrake light lights up. Regular blinkers dont work but the emergency ones do.

It's definatly not the fuse because the tail lights and lic. plate are on the same fuse and are working fine. I dont know what happned, it had been working fine just a day or two before.

has this happned to anyone else?

do a cylinder leak down test, that should help pinpoint the problem

then maybe try a compression test, it could increase power by as much as 5HP

Thanks for all your non-help but I have a pretty serious problem here. no blinkers means a good chance of getting pulled over. I want to fix this asap and would appreciate any real help I could get.

thanks.
