Hi smax,

Sorry for the delay in the reply and thanks for the donation.

Fuel, temp, oil gauge, tachometer and speedometer uses same fuse, # 4 main fuse box. If some of above are working, it should not be power supply problem and ou need to check the meter cluster.

Charge indicator uses separate fuse.
