    It sure looks like you have a dark spot on the right, or 2 actually. I hope it's something simple.

    Pull the bulbs on that side and use some contact cleaner and clean the contacts. I have the same issue but on the left side of my cluster after I replaced the bulbs with LEDs.

    It comes back randomly when hitting bumps so just a bad connection. I will probably change out the whole bulb too just to see if it makes a difference.

    Is your LED bulb in backwards? Looks like one bulb isnt working.
