    I've done everything but put a new cluster in. Any suggestions?

    Ok...this may sound a bit stupid (it does to me but I have a reason for it) disconnect your battery for about half an hour or so.

    Other than that, just what constitutes the "everything" you have done?

    I have checked all fuses, light bulbs, ground wires. Replaced the head light switch. I will try disconnecting the battery tomorrow. I haven't replaced the cluster, hoping it's not that. Thanks

    Is your dimmer and headlight switch in one unit? If not, check the dimmer too.

    Unplug the head unit and put a multi meter to the plug to see if you are getting power. If you are not work your way back to the fuse. If you are then look at the head unit.
