Default Utterly stumped!!!!

I have replaced the crank shaft postion sensor, the ECU, throttle sensor, ECU relay, battery, alternator, and the belt. I am still getting the "no bus" on the dash and the car cut out while driving...now it won't start! I don't know what it could be. I tried to unplug the crack shaft sensor but the gauges still won't work.....I don't know what's going on!

Very common problem, very simple fix.
Remove the gauge cluster.
Use some Electrical Contact Cleaner ($5) on the harness connectors and on the cluster itself.
Add a little Dielectric Grease.
Re-assemble.
