1997 Saturn SW2 instrument cluster lighting

I was hoping some of the many Saturn owners would see this and maybe have run in to this issue.

I recently removed my instrument cluster to get at the back and remove the 'ABS' idiot light bulb that has been on since I bought the car.

It was no issue, but when driving home that night I noticed that none of my 'needles' were lit up. I can't actually recall if they were lit up before but something was different because now I cannot tell what speed I'm going or tach is at and I know I didn't used to have this problem.

Anyway, all other interior and cluster lights works fine and dimmer switch appears to be working fine. There are some random bulbs in the center of the instrument cluster that also appear fine. Does anyone know where exactly power to the 'needle' lights themselves comes from and how could none of them light but everything else lights?

Thank you for the help.
