Default speedometer, odometer, cruise control not working on 97 xj sport 5 speed

So a couple of days ago I started it up and started driving to work, noticed all of those were no longer working but were working the day before. Does anyone have any ideas on what it could be and how to fix it. I checked the connections to the t-case and the connections were good.

Might be your ignition switch.

Not sure how to test. It could also be your dash cluster connector. Google these two things and you will get a lot of good info.

Sounds like a fuse. Just happened to me. I don't have cruise control though. Fuse is under the hood, 15 amp.

Not a fuse... Turns out it was a speed meter
