Yesterday while pulling into a gas station I noticed the DIC was not illuminated not the gear indicator on the cluster. Once parked, I shut the truck off and turned it back on and the DIC/gear indicator came back. Turned the truck off once more and everything seemed fine. Drove a few miles and then both screens went dark again and have not returned since. I've driven the truck about five times since this happened and I can see a little bit of illumination on the year indicator when the interior lights are on, but not otherwise. (See Pic)

Help me out guys, is this an illumination problem or is the DIC in my cluster dead?

So, fried... Honestly I was worried it might be something like this. I guess I'll yank the cluster out and see what the inside looks like.

I wouldn't trust myself with repairs to a circuit board so any recommendations on a place to get my cluster repaired?
