The blinkers, speedometer, and rpm don't work in my car anymore, my main focus is the blinkers right now, they don't turn on at all but the hazards and everything else still works fine, do you know what could be the problem with the blinkers?

Ck. The turn signal fuse key on with a test light. Then test for power getting to the flasher. The flasher is the one mounted near the steering column or u can look in the owners manual if u can't find it. It has the yellow bands around it. If it is getting power when the signal is on u will need to replace it.

It sounds like the cluster has shorted out which is common on these cars, but first we should check the fuses, here is a guide to help and the fuse location in the images below.

Test the fuses with the key on please. If all of the fuses are good here is how to remove the instrument cluster so you can send it in for testing. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.
