Default 98 S10 Blazer transmission gear ind. lights

My transmission gear indicator light in the dash went out. All other lights work. They went out temporarily for a day and then came back on. The following day they went back out and have stayed off since. I can't see what gear I am in and the odometer is also out. All suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

I believe that this typically is caused by a fault in the cluster itself. Most of the time, it is a cold solder somewhere on the circuit board in the cluster. Many have had luck fixing the problem with a soldering iron and a bit of time/patience.
