Good chance it's the bi-metal voltage regulator. It mounts on the flex circuit board within the display cluster. Do a search on the site to show location.
I was looking for a car that could get me dates. Interesting enough the first girl in my car I went out with became my wife. I kept the car and the girl. Chances are either the car goes, the girl, or both. I kept both!! LOL
Maybe do a simple measurement using a plumb line from the windshield at the dowel pin cavity and down to door or dash pad, then compare with an another vert without this issue. Just a thought. This may not be accurate enough....
Update:
Just checked my car , dash pad won't work, maybe the top...
I live in PA and I really don't see any cars like ours at all. I'm sure they're around but probably only driven in summer months and sporadically.
If I do see it, I'll for sure let you know.
