Question Gauges and interior lights not working

Only 2 of my gauges work which are the oil and battery gauges the rest dont move...so i replaced the gauge cluster and those two gauges are still the only ones working and my interior lights dont work.the ones that work are the blinkers, high beams, and the glove box light and the warning lights work but the shifter and other gauge lights dont work so i replaced the headlamp switch and still nothing and I have checcked all the fuses but i am stumped....any help would be great!This is a 96 cherokee by the way.

Maybe you need to replace the lights in the shifter/gauge lights/interior lights? Did you check the fuses with a checker or just by looking at them?
