Hello,
It sounds like it can be one of two things, the first thing I would do is test the accessory relay which runs the system, also there are more then one fuse that supplies power to the cluster. Next, Remove the cluster and unplug it, then plug it back in again, this will clean the contacts and fix any bad connection. Here is the wiring diagrams for the cluster (below).
Please run some tests and get back to us so we can continue helping you.
Best, Ken
