They light up but seem to just stop working. I will be driving along and all of a sudden the needles are not moving and the odometer only comes on every now and then.

Hi Laurie,

This happens when the cluster is going out. Here is a video that shows how to fix it on a similar car:

Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.

Cheers, Ken
