That usually is the 10V stabilizer on the rear of the Instrument cluster. Verify that you have good 12v+ and ground connections to it, and the cluster then replace.
it is a lm7810 voltage regulator that you can order from a good parts supplier.
They are like 34 dollars USD from the dealer or parts supplier or a buck or two at a electrical vendor
I usually look for a fairchild KA7810-AET if you search on ebay or amazonia for 7810 voltage stabilizer you will find plenty of hits.
Here is some from the Netherlands.

If you order one get 4 or 5 as they can be bad from the getgo. 5 are as cheap as 1-or-2.

Still has a 10V stabilizer on the back side of the cluster.
