2001 B3000 Instrument cluster not illuminating??

[felinestevens]

Hi everyone! How's it going?

New to the forum but have gleaned a lot of great advice from the past on different vehicles.

I have a 2001 Mazda B3000, SE7. Had to replace a few of the illumination bulbs in the instrument cluster a while back, as most of them were burnt out. But now, the instrument cluster doesn't light up when driving at night or early morning. The tail lights work, the fuses appear to be fine, the turn signal work, cabin light works, hazards work, and headlights work. Plus the high beam light, seat belt warning light and check engine light comes on until the vehicle gets up to temp, same as always. But oddly enough, even when I set the speed control, the activator light on the instrument cluster doesn't come one, albeit, very, very slightly. Does anyone have any ideas on what the issue may be and how I can fix this?
