Question Gauges don't work

I bought a 1995 f-150 4.9 4x4, 5spd. Good truck, but my instrument gauges don't work. My speedometer and odometer work. Lights ok. Can the cluster be repaired and if so is ther a common problem area for this year.

Thanks

Remove the dash trim and cluster and check the connections. My bet is that something came loose back there

And Welcome to FTE friend

Check dash light replacement post on here . I gave step by step (I hope) on how to get the cluster out. To check plugs . Could be fuse or senders bad but not on all of them

I know this may sound dumb but have you checked all your fuses?
