Exclamation Cluster problem

Hi new here and i have been having a problem with my cluster panel. i have read and searched and so far this is what i have done. fuses both inside and out checked....(g00d) replaced panel 2 times still same problem. changed the vss out. still same problem both gauges on the left and right both are not working but the speedo and mileage are when it doesn't decide to go to error or error 3. Any help with this would be great. I have a 1995 f150 4.9 efi. thanks!

as you can see below the are pegged and when i hard reset it only one that works does anything.

Check the battery cables, check the grounds at ALL the points. There should be several ground straps. Once you've eliminated any grounding issue then it's time to move on to the wiring in the dash behind the cluster. Make sure that all the wires are in tact and no insulation is rubbed off or melted. Then check ALL the fuses, there are the obvious ones in the cab, there is also a box under the hood.
