Default Instrument cluster lost ground

My Instrument cluster lost ground. Don't want to dissassemble cluster unnecessarily. All instrumentation works but no back lighting. Turn Signal lights indication stays lit as well as high beam indication, which tells me I've lost ground somewhere. Any suggestions short of dissassembling the Cluster? I think the ground loss is either in the Cluster connector or before.

Go here. There is a list of symptoms, and what you're describing is there. It's a pretty simple fix if you are good with a soldering iron. Just time consuming getting the cluster out. You will have to remove the digital cluster.
