Yep, this happens when the cluster goes out and needs to be replaced. To be sure we should do a CAN scan which will confirm the issue, you can get a CAN scanner (Controller Area Network) from Amazon.

Here is a video to show you how:

Also here is a video of the job being down on a similar car. The procedures is the same with instructions in the images below for your car.

You can get a rebuilt unit by searching Google or eBay. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.
