Default Dead Instrument Lights

This isn't the same problem as the other light thread, so I decided to make a new thread for it.

For about a week, my instrument lights haven't worked at all. The park lights, headlights, and taillights all function normally, but none of the instrument lights (cluster, console, stereo) work.

All the fuses are good. I tested with a known-good headlight switch and dimmer switch, it's not those. I tested with an extra cluster (I'm starting to gather duplicate parts of everything o.O ) and it didn't light up, so it's not an issue with the cluster. Any ideas? Anyone have a wiring diagram?

Here is a link to download the workshop manual, should have wiring diagrams.
http://www.cannell.co.uk/Manuals.htm

past that, I am not a wiring genius by any stretch, so I couldn't tell ya what was goin' on.

Tried that link, no wiring diagrams, and the manuals inside don't work. I have a copy of the manual-on-CD, but it doesn't have 'em either (unless they're exceptionally well hidden).

remember one thing if you have power and ground you still may not have enough wire to have amperage going thru it.

remember to use a socket like a brake bulb or something to make sure the current is strong enough.

I own a test probe, I'll just use that if it comes down to testing the circuit itself. I'm really hoping there's something fairly easy I'm overlooking

Only diagnosis will get you thru this.
