I've been in that situation before! Not with my alero, but my brothers 99 alero.

Does the AC and window switches work when the cluster is not working while the car is on? If they don't work, you ignition key cylinder is messed up and needs a new one. The dealer replaced my bro's cylinder i think it was like 400 bucks after everything.

But thats what it sounds like. The clyinder isn't making contact to power up the accessories. If everything else works like AC controls, and windows, then you prolly have a fuse out. And theres 2 gauge cluster fuses.

Let me know and we'll take it from there.
