A bad cluster is a hard disk cluster which has been flagged by the file system as being corrupted or damaged in some way, and thus will no longer be used for storing data.
In the olden days, it was not uncommon for a new hard disk to have a few bad clusters on it here & there due to minor manufacturing flaws and perhaps develop a few more during its normal lifespan. However, in modern parlance a bad cluster is almost always followed by several more bad clusters, and is a sign that the hard disk will soon fail completely.

How do you repair a 1990 Honda Accord speedometer that is always on the highest speed even when driving?
None of the guages in the cluster are actually tied to the devices they read out for. They are read outs of what the ECU determines to be going on. The problem can only be 4 things. A bad wire/connection, which I doubt, a bad sensor, a bad ECU, or a bad instrument cluster. The instrument cluster isn't made to be disasembled, so don't try. Only a dealer or a competent mechananic with good electrical skills would be able to diagnose this problem.
