2000 Jimmy Instrument Cluster

I was wondering if anyone could inform me of why my instrument cluster
doesn't work right. The fuel gague doesn't work leaving the low fuel
light on, the battery light stays on, the tempreature gauage doesn't
work, the lights showing you what gear you're in don't work, and I'm
beginning to doubt my oil pressure gauge. All this happened about the
time I replaced the alternator in it. I've already ordered another
used cluster off of ebay (I was told by the dealership that it was
probably the instrument cluster) and it does the exact thing when
installed, so I doubt that. I also have checked and replaced the fuses
that control everything, they were fine when I took them out but I
replaced them anyway. Didn't help. Does anyone know how this would of
happened?
