Default 2005 Grand Caravan Instrument cluster, bliners, brake lights all out

Hello Fellow Dodgers,

I have been entrenched in these threads and have broken down to inquire for some assistance. My instrument cluster is non responsive with anything except for when I turn the Head lights on then the backlights come on. No MPH, RPM, Fuel, or Temp are responsive. No other messages light up at all. No mileage or anything. Also, my blinkers and break lights don't work. Everything else works. Horn, Wipers, Radio, AC, Lights, Power Windows and locks.

After research, I initially thought, Cluster, then a module, then the PDC (fuse Box). I took the fusebox out and cleaned the connections to see if anything improved and nothing. I went and got another cluster and put it in and nothing. I don't know what the issue could be because most issues with PDC or FCM have quirky things happening with their lights and I don't.

The lead up to the issue is Friday Night I helped tow a car home from accross town. when I hooked the light plug up, there was an issue somewhere so that when ever I put a blinker on, they didn't work, but both lights would blink on the trailer like hazards. So drove all the way across town with a blinker on to have hazard lights. The next day I drove the fan fine to a Football game, and when I came out of the game, the guages were all non responsive. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Update, I tried going to the basics and checking the fuses. Does anyone know if a fuse would cause the instrument cluster as well as the blinkers and break lights to not function? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Problem solved. Tow wired got pinched and frayed in back lift door so caused a fuse to blow. All of these issues were caused by the hazard light fuse being blown.
