Take the tacho and speedo out and you will be looking right at it.

Hmm - look over all the solder joints - use a pin to slide over the solder - feeling for a crack. Some times it can be the connector where the ribbon goes in. This can be cracked also.

The gauges are almost never the problem - is the DTE working in the cluster - if zero chack the fuel sender connection.

If you plug the L2 dash in and the fuel gauge works - it will be the cluster. Sorry missed this bit about the L2 cluster fit. Yes it has the same wire config for L2 & L3 gauges.
