'00 legacy wagon, auto trans w/ 81k miles

i have only had the car about 1000 miles and all i have done to it is replace an axle and a trans drain and fill. both were exactly like my 97 GT.

 

today the digital read out on the odo, clock stopped working and the speedo is dead.

 

this has to be a loose connection or a fuse? any ideas?

 

i can see only 2 screws on the instrument cluster trim, any tips for removing it if i have to go that far. i sure don't want to force it and break anything in my new ride.

 

i guess fuses first.

Fuses first for sure. Sometimes there are some extra screws behind the kick panel holding the gauge bezel in.
