would think the battery arched or something and blew out a fuse. The fuse box is a rectangular one located near the front of the engine on the driver side Looking at owners manual. Thanks

Good afternoon,

I attached the diagram of the cluster for you. There are 2 fuses that control the cluster. Check them and the wires at the cluster for power. The orange and pink wires should have battery voltage.
