Loose ground somewhere, check behind the headlights, I think that is where the cluster/ECM gets a ground.

Check main wires to battery, especially the ground wire.

A bad battery will do the same.

It's time for a new battery. First try charging it, if the problem persists it's time for a battery. Mine does this this when it's time for a trip to the battery man.

There was a lithium battery that someone found that was only about $30 more than stock and many pounds lighter, never did get a report on that battery so it is probably fine.

Looks like the price pretty much doubled since the last time it was discussed:

Found this on the 1125 section:
