      It got so bad that the numbers disappeared completely. A few years ago the clock on my off road Subaru lost it's digits and went blank. I read up on it and it was easy solution with a soldering iron and a dab of solder. After the digits in the Aveo disappeared completely I remembered that Subaru Clock deal and pulled the cluster out of thee Aveo and looked at the pins around the odometer. BAZINGA!!! Broken solder joints where the pins connect into the board.

      That straight row of connections is the odometer.

      The first pic you can see the crack ring in the solder on the left side pins.

      The second pic you can see the next few warmed up, expanded and showed their breaks after I heated up and soldered the first two. I did'm all Works like new. It's been months since any part of a number showed itself till that free fix on the kitchen table. She's also cured of Alzheimer's and remembers and adds miles!
