Did you replace the bulbs with new filament-in-glass bulbs it with LED bulbs.

If the glass route, did you get 194 bulbs?

We placed the stock bulbs with leds but still only the same one that lit up before is working and yes 194 bulbs

I talked to a guy and he said my whole cluster could be bad even tho the gauges are working it could be bad making the lights not work

?

Do you have the polarity on the LED's correct? They have a distinct positive and negative which isn't marked on the cluster because regular bulbs will work in either direction. I think you got 20% lucky on the LED placement.
