[Tigers] 3 gauges stopped working

The lights in those gauges rely on the same (daisy-chained) ground to work.
If the instruments will light when the panel light switch is ON then the
problem can't be the ground.  If they won't light, it almost has to be the
ground.

The ground wire on many of the gauges is looped from  one gauge to the 
next.  If the ground wire is loose at the end, all of  those gauges could
stop 
working. 
Also a fuse making bad contact would create the same  symptoms.  I had that 
problem, cleaned up the fuses and fuse contacts and  problem went away.
I think the most likely is the fuse problem unless  you've been messing 
around under the dash lately.
