Default LCD/odometer display

Hey guys, I'm new on here, I have a 2006 lariat crewcab F150. A few days ago, the display where my odometer reading/tem/compass bearing is shown, started flickering, mostly when i turn on my running lights. Could this be a fuse problem, or maybe a problem with the dimmer control switch? By flicker, I mean it turns off and on randomly.

Same thing happened to me. Mine needed a new digital display thing. That's the place that tells you mileage and stuff in the bottom right corner, right ?

Either take it to an odometer shop or order a new digital screen and pull your dash and from there take your cluster out which is easy and unplug the old digital screen and plug in the new one and put it all back together. When you pull your dash it's just to wire harnesses that unclip
