Well I made matters worse. I got all new instrument cluster bulbs because I had a burned out one and when I replaced the odometer gear I didn't replace the bulbs. Plus I am still having the other problem of all the dash lights going out after a short time and I thought this might solve that. So I decided to first try replacing the bulbs. Got the cluster out and replaced the 4 cluster and 2 computor bulbs. But when I replaced it and plugged in all the connectors, the trip computor now says "disc" which I know means disconnected. I did plug in its connector behind the dash, and the clock still works. I think the problem is in the large electrical connector on the top, the one on the right side as you look at it. It did not seem to go back together as easily as it came apart. Maybe I bent a prong in there, not sure. Any ideas?
