Default Weird glitch/reset issue

This afternoon I started my 91, and all the gauges reset back to zero. Trip, avg, range, everything.

No warning lights came on, or anything that seemed out of place other than everything being back to zero.

Has anyone experienced this before or know what could have caused it?

The cluster has power on it all the time to keep those values in its memory. If that power is interrupted for any reason they all go to zero.

There are multiple possibilities, like loose or corroded connections, broken wires, loose fuses, etc.

On the other hand, this could be a one-time thing that never happens again...
