Why's my 2012 Kia Soul instrument cluster not working?

The most common reason for an instrument cluster to stop working in the 2012 Kia Soul is a faulty voltage regulator. The voltage regulator is responsible for sending power to the instrument cluster. If the regulator is failing, the gauges will generally read high or low become erratic. The average cost to replace this part in the 2012 Soul is $350 to $400, including labor. If none of the gauges are working at all, You are likely dealing with a blown fuse. This is easily fixed by replacing the fuse. You can identify the one You need by looking at the diagram on the inside cover of the fuse box.If neither of these is the problem, You could have a wiring issue. In rare cases, the entire cluster has gone bad and needs to be replaced. This will run You between $910 and $940, including labor.
