Default Instrument cluster needles stop doing animation

Has anyone experience with this? When I start the car speed and RPM needles would go around the gauge like light sabers but they do not move anymore. The needles do lit up when I drive but would not do startup animation. Sometime it does sometime not. Is my cluster about to go out soon?

I haven't since 2008. You guys are right. I noticed the needle lights don't want to fully come on, there's a delay. I thought I was going to have to replace the instrumemt clusters. Thanks.
