If you check into the TSB's online you will find that a bulliten was issued for that problem.I believe it was issued in 1999. Some type of electrical short or bad connection in the wiring harness that your instrument cluster plugs into. You have to pull the cluster out and change the connecters.

It means that the computer has stored a diagnostic code and you should connect a code scanner to determine what the code means. If you can't do it yourself, you should take it to a shop. When something goes wrong, typically with a sensor or other electronic device, the computer detects the fault and stores it for diagnostic purposes, but you need to read the code to find out what it means.
