Check your fuses? The gauges aren't getting power or ground. Each gauge is pretty separate, needing only power, ground, and the resistance from the sender.
Does the oil gauge work? It ONLY has a +12V and sender signal, so if it's the only thing working, you have a ground problem.

it makes sense but i just dont get how a ground can stop working and the truck only sat for 1-2 weeks. i drive a tow truck for a living so it sits for a period of time.
where are the ground for the inst cluster? under the dash? left or right side?

I clean the ground next to the fuse box in the cab. I clean the the body down to bare metal and give the ground cable a good scrubbing with a wire brush. Not sure if this is the actual ground that works with the cluster but it is worth a shot.
