    What fuse would this be?

    Buy a Head Torch. That way when you look down you will see the Dials..

    haaa.

    Take my hat off to that on Norm, guessing there must be a loose wire someplace as all the fuses are intact..

    Could be a loose plug on the back off the instrument cluster.

    Only option left is to take the cluster out and see if all the plugs are secure.
