You might be able to buy another cluster on eBay but the mileage may be off.

Hello, this problem is due to a failing stepper motor. The stepper motor is the motor behind the gauge that controls the movement of the needle. When a stepper motor begins to go out it will cause the gauge needle to stick, skip around, stay at zero or max out on the gauge. The only way to fix the problem is to replace the stepper motor with a new one. While replacing one motor it is best to go ahead and replace them all as the others will go out in time as well. Your cluster will have one motor for each gauge.Search Google for DrSpeedometer for more information and how to get your cluster fixed.

I had the same issue. Somebody told me to check my 4x4 fuse. Well the fuse was fine. I immediately thought about my cruise control wasn't working so I checked that fuse and sure enough it was blown. Swapped out the 10 Amp fuse and bamm!! Everything works again.
