What causes the cluster gauges to stop working?
In one of the youtube videos I watched, the guy mentioned that there are also three small surface mount resistors that control power to the entire cluster, and his were causing the entire gauge cluster to go dead. He reflowed them and corrected the issue. I had a issue pretty similar to this as well.
Where do the needles stop on a GM instrument cluster?
Rotate all the needles counter clockwise gently until the come to a stop, they should all stop at or just below the zero marks. Now make a pen mark on the tape just below the top of each needle.

As the engine/generator speed changes, so will the current (amperage) output of the generator. As a vehicle slows, engine/generator RPM slows and the current (amperage) output of the generator may not be sufficient to supply the loads, the vehicle system voltage will drop and the lights will dim.
Are there any power gauges on my Yukon XL?
My 2003 Yukon XL (Suburban) with 5.3 motor and 70k miles has no power to any of dash gauges. The truck runs and operates fine, but the radio, heater controls and dash lights work fine. No gauge activity at all. All gauges are at the zero mark. I believe I have checked all fuses at left hand corner of dash, under dash and the under hood fuse box.
