With the cluster unplugged and key on you should have at least 10 volts at the LG/OG, BK/LG, BK/PK, and RD/YE wires. On the same connector you should have less than 5 ohms resistance to ground on the PK/OG and BK wires.

Is a combination of the wires in all 3 plugs on the back of the cluster?or one plug

Thanks

If I translated your question right, these wires are all on the same connector.
