Default Instrument Cluster help

Has anyone had to replace the instrument cluster in a "98 c-5 or had trouble with one?

I have a 98 and the cluster lights and tailights did not illuminate. VetteTech 81 was able to diagnose the problem as a faulty multi-function switch (turn signal); it fixed my problem.

I shot 128VAC into my IPC! It didn't work after that. I took it apart and found the diodes that got welded together and repaired it. I now know a lot more about the IPC than I ever wanted to know!

They are easy to remove, about 15 minutes if you don't have to go looking for tools.
