The lights in those gauges rely on the same (daisy-chained) ground to work.
If the instruments will light when the panel light switch is ON then the
problem can't be the ground. If they won't light, it almost has to be the
ground.

Subject: Re: [Tigers] 3 gauges stopped working
The ground wire on many of the gauges is looped from one gauge to the
next. If the ground wire is loose at the end, all of those gauges could
stop
working.
Also a fuse making bad contact would create the same symptoms. I had that
problem, cleaned up the fuses and fuse contacts and problem went away.
I think the most likely is the fuse problem unless you've been messing
around under the dash lately.
