A lot of the time Mark, if you remove the bulbholder, tease the finger contacts out away from the holder a bit and clean them, clean the tracks rounf the hole for the bulb holder and refit giving it a few back and forth turns as far as you can, that usually solves it.
Sometimes you have to pull the bulb out of the holder and refit it to clean the contacts on that, there are some links that might need soldering, going to have to look at mine soon as i've got 2 large and one small out on my cluster. Kind of annoying as they're LEDs and it's a pig of a job getting the cluster out and back in again.
Keep thinking about compltely stripping the clust and fitting some reflection inside it and adding some LED strips inside as extra light and loading on the dimmer although i can get mine pretty dim anyway.
Might do a few photos when i sort the immediate lighting problem in the cluster but that's a few days away at least.
