Question Gauge Cluster Help???

So Im driving down the road today.. And I look down and my tach and speedo is at zero, like the jeep isnt even running. So I touch the trip meter button and it shoots back up and starts working.. It happend 2-3 times. Only thing i did difference is, I was using the cruise control, and hit cancel, without shutting the cruise off and sat at a stoplight, and then continued driving.. First time this has ever happend.. Any suggestions??

Just went for the drive.. before i started it up, I was able to push the cluster back around a 1/4 of an inch.. Which resolved my problems for now .. thanks.. Maybe ill just push the cluster everytime i drive it!!
