dash lights

1) The dash lights on my 87 190E is not working, When I got in and drove it last night that’s when it happen, I turn the head lights on it came on but no dash lights! It worked the night before, so not sure what’s going on.
2) This morning I’d check the fuse (main fuse box under the hood) it was ok, but changed it anyways just incase there’s hairline cracks, turn the dimmer back and forth a few times, also check the reverse lights it worked ok too.
3) The auto gear shifter light is the only one that works, but I don’t think it’s in the same path. I’m in the process of moving so I don’t have the manuals with me.
4) I’ve been searching the posts, a lot about another fuse behind the instrument cluster, I don’t have one if I recall when I took this assembly out to replace the capacitors on the clock.
5) My questions are:
a) Am I looking in the wrong place for the “fuse” that some of you are talking about?
b) If no fuse in my car (87 model but manufactured date Nov 86), what could be wrong?

Thanks for any help
