I made a crappy DIY on it almost a year ago how how to change out the LED bulbs in the needles. Basically, there are 4 LEDs in the needles. One of them burnt out on each of your needles. You'll either have to buy a new cluster or change out the LEDs yourself but that requires soldering skills. I can fix them and also do any custom cluster work for $50 flat. Message me if interested. I just finished another member's cluster two days ago.

I'd certainly expect that to be covered by CPO
