2001 F-150 Lariat Odometer Issues
Hey everyone,
I just bought a 2001 Ford F-150 Lariat that has a strange issue with the odometer. The odometer always keeps track of the mileage, but will not light up (electronic odometer) all the time, sometimes it will start working again when the motor warms up and sometimes it will never kick on during a 20-30 minute drive. Any ideas? Sensor? Loose wire? Fuse? Thanks in advance

There was just a thread. Read through 2 PAGES OF THREADS OR SEARCH. Crazy. Seriously. Someone just posted this. 
But all you have to do is take the cluster apart and re solder some joints. No big deal, if you can't solder learn. Buy a $20 gun. Or go to a computer parts store or local geek squad in best buy or something. They are all good at soldering. But if you don't know how I recommend learning. Good skill to have trust me.
