Fuse problem?

Chevrolet Cavalier 2003  50000 miles
All gauges, speedometer on dash are dead. Checked fuses supposed to be for instrument cluster. All tested good with electric tester. With bright flashlight saw no evidence of any fuses being blown.

It's possible that the issue is not with the fuses but with the instrument cluster itself. If the gauges and speedometer are not functioning, it could be a problem with the cluster's circuit board or the wiring that connects it to the vehicle's electrical system. Another possibility is a problem with the vehicle's Engine Control Module (ECM), which could be sending incorrect signals to the cluster.

Have been told that circuit board is probably the culprit. Trying to get it looked at at mechanics first chance. Luckily car is not primary vehicle.

Where is the brake light fuse? There are no fuses under the hood.

Chevrolet Cavalier 1993 V6 Z28 200000 miles
No brake lights. Already changed bulbs and still no brake lights. So I think it's the fuse.

Try disconnecting the ground from the battery overnight. Sounds like a anti theft system issue

Starts and stalls right away

Chevrolet Cavalier 2003 2.2 l 4 cylinder automatic 165000 miles
I recently just did a stereo upgrade from factory system to aftermarket pioneer Bluetooth MP3 and I'm not sure if this has anything to do with it but after doing so my car all of a sudden won't stay on after starting it it just stalls out right away every single time I will check the fuses they are all good I've cleaned out the air intake of any fluid I just don't quite understand what the issue is I understand the mass airflow sensor could be the issue but I would like to get somebody else's opinion

Check and make sure the electrical connector is in properly there are several that need to be plugged in. Especially the security light on cluster.

Windows won’t go up

Chevrolet Cavalier 2003 2door LX 170000 miles
The windows will go down. They will not go up. I did replace the master switch. I’m going to check your fuse tomorrow. Under the master switch there are wires, but they’re not in that rubber circular piece they should be in. Do you think maybe one of those wires could be not touching one another if the fuse is good because my sunroof opens and closes wonderfully could that possibly be on a different fuse just getting frustrated it’s 90° where I’m at and I have no windows if I put them down they won’t come up someone please help.

Starting issues

Chevrolet Cavalier 1994 2 door, blue, it's a four banger 100000 miles
I bought a new battery and it still won't start. All I get is clicking sound... Plus the previous owner jury rigged a fuse from the battery to the starter...it may be bad... it doesn't have your ordinary fuse it is almost like a relay...

Dash lights quit working after I replaced the heater core

Chevrolet Cavalier 1998 2.2 2dr 5 spd 345000 miles
Up until I replaced the heater core a couple days ago, all of the lights on and in my car worked fine, after I finished putting the dash back together I went for a drive and noticed as it was getting dark that my dash lights are not working. So I went home and grabbed my 12 v light tester and checked all of the fuses with the lights turned on and the ignition on. All of the fuses are good, so I took apart the dash and traced the wires back to the instrument cluster, everything seems good but still no dash lights??? Could somebody please help me with this? Thank you
