I have no gauges or turn signals. I replaced the accessorie relay, however the gauges were not restored. None of the fuses or relays are labeled in a manner that would indicate that they are associated with the gauges. Am I just missing the proper fuse or is the problem caused by something else? Thanks.

According to Dodge, if even one gauge goes out it is not servicable! The entire instrument cluster must be replaced. You can do a self test on it With the key in off possition, press and hold the trip reset button until sof and a number appears in the odometer window then release the button. If a fault code is present, the cluster will display it in the odometer display. Write all numbers that appear. When all codes have been displayed, the cluster will display "end" Post the codes and I will tell you what they mean.

I am unable to follow your advice regarding an error code. The odometer/trip tic is DOA as well, therefore no error codes can be displayed. The gauges themselves do still light up though. Any further advice on tackling this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Other than retrieving the codes with the DRBII chrysler scanner is probably the only way to go at this point. It does sound like a dead cluster.

You did have the key in the ignition for the test right?
