Default Dash lights or centre console lights.

Hi, first time posting hopefully have this in the right section.
99 Cherokee SE I6.
I am thinking it is a ground, but not sure where to look and what Color would the wire be?.

Also, I would like to put a factory roof rack on this jeep, it came with none...Any idea what I would need and where to get the inserts. I have the Roof Rack already and screws.

Thanks,
S

Default Same problem, not the fuse

Changed the check engine bulb in the cluster, No gauge lights or console lights, Thought maybe I jacked up the headlight switch removing the cluster so replaced that as well, no dice with that. Any suggestions?
