idiot lights--->gauges, 82-84 bird

I recently got a gauge cluster from an 84 t/a which had the full gauges ( speedo,tach,water temp,oil pres,volts,fuel) as opposed to my speedo,gas gauge and dummy lights. I tried just swapping it in but all it did was blow the gauges fuse. I tried it again and same thing. Is there more involved in this swap or did I just get a dead gauge cluster? I tried searching but found nothing......

thanks guys

here's a pic of what i have now:
