    Check you are getting power at the clusters mate - Red/Black is the colour of the wire you have to probe. Your high level light is more than likely going to be spliced into one of them though. Mate i know you say the bulbs are ok i would swap them and when you take out the bulbs probe the bulb connection too to check for power. Remember Red/Black is the wore for the brakes.
    Update on how you go mate,
