nothing changed pulling fuse's ,i think your ground answer might be worth searching for.

I ran into this on a customers car a couple years ago. Instead of throwing parts at it, take it somewhere and have it checked. there could be a powerfeed somewhere not getting juice. This particular one I ran into, there was a break in the cluster for the amp gauge. it runs through the gauge then to the alt.

Food for thought.
