Default Chevrolet silverado 1500 1997 Gauges dont work

I have a 1997 chevorlet 1500 pickup and my instrument cluster does not work, all my gauges don't work or read incorrect data. Also the Check Gauges sign is on. Also the power of my truck had weakened and it doesn't run like it used to. It doesn't accelerate and it shakes and jerks whenever im driving. Im thinking it's just the instrument cluster but not sure. Help with whatever information you can give me Thanks, Taylor

welcome....Usually when all the gauges are not working properly, its a ground problem to the circuit board. Look under your dash for loose wires going to a steel ground point.
The fact that its running bad and a check light is on, may mean bigger problems. I would suggest reading the codes to see if it shows any
