Assuming all these stopped at the same time then this is either one of the fuses shown in the wiring diagrams below or the cluster itself has failed.

Clearly for each of these to fail at the same time and all the inputs to the cluster for it to not be the cause is highly unlikely. So we need to check for power at the cluster to make sure it is still operating and then replace the cluster.

I attached the info below for this.

Plus here is a guide on how to do this testing:
