Gauge cluster problem!! HELP!

Hello, everyone. I own a 1992 300SL-24V

Im currently experienceing a problem with the gauge cluster. It began with the fuel gauge being lighted up and always staying on empty, even with a full tank of petrol. Drove the car around for a couple of days everytinhg was ok.

However, a few days later, i leave my car on idle for around 10 mins and when i get back, the entire gauge cluster is lighted up except for the check engine light and SRS..and all the gaugess are dead.

the only one working is the temp gauge. I am at a loss to explain all this...

I also lost the interior lights (the ones that light up when you turn on park light function) and also the soft top function!!

the car still runs fine however.

I hope you guys can help..please

did you check the fuses?

I remember once on my old 420sel, the gauge cluster went poop and it was the fuse. It'd be the first thing I would check out.
