I have lost the tach, odometer, speedometer, gas gauge and temp display but not the charge or oil display, all fuses in car and under hood are good.
This occurred when I was driving, put on signal to turn left, and the above displays went out.
What else could it be?

If you want to be sure, have it scanned with a GM capable scanner so you can read "B" and "U" codes, this wont read with "generic" scanners. GM tech II tool is preffered, but try unplugging the connector for the Multifunction switch, se if the gauges work again. If they do, replace the switch, if not, you may need a new cluster. Scan before replacing parts!

It's your directional signal, high beam switch on the column!
