Default analog guages dead

i left my headlights on too long and drained the battery. after jump start with jump box, all my analog guages went dead. (tach, speedo, temp, fuel.)
everything else works fine. (digital speedo, low fuel light, radio, headlights...) i think it must be a fuse, but i couldn't find one for these items in the fuse box. anybody have any ideas???
thanks, brian

just to follow up oin this problem in case anyones' interested, a couple days later, with the anolog guages still not working, i went to the fuse box and and pulled each 15 amp and lower fuse out one at a time to check and see if any were blown. none were blown, but when i started the car, all my analog guages worked fine.
i don't think i would be clumsy enough to hook the jumper cables up backward, but it could have been possible. anyway all the guages work ok now.
