The instrument cluster can develop loose connector pins that can be soldered to the copper circuits, but if all of these things are related you might suspect overheated ignition switch contacts or the terminals in the switch connector. In some cases wiggling the ignition switch will make those things start working again if switch contacts are the problem.
