Default Burnt out gauges??? HELP!

Well, I went to go upload a different tune with my SCT2 and when I plugged it in the screen didn't light up/function. So I said whatever and decided to go out on a drive. Right away the white back lights didn't go on nor did any of the needles move. The only functioning light was the orang airbag light flashing. Got home real quick to disconnect and reset the battery but with no solution.

Any guesses? Blown fuse?

Help!!

Yeah, will do. I went to check the fuses in the cabin but couldn't get the fuse box cover off. The latch seems to be cover by the the kick panel.
What sucks is I can't even get my SCT to hook up to the OBD port to flash to stock and bring it to the dealer [:@][:@][:@]

i think that on the left side of the fuse
box cover, is where you will find the
release tab.

my cover'sbeen off for so long,
i had forgotten how annoying it is

Same **** happened to me using the SCT tuner

2 fuses blew, related to the cluster, easy to fix

Wondering why that is though

Thanks for the replies guys!!

Glad to hear I'm not the only one who has experienced this! I was beginning to worry about
getting stuck with problems at the dealership...

Off to Autozone in the morning!
