Citroen Xsara dash cluster stops working when driving

Car: Citroen Xsara
Variant: 1.4petrol
Model Year: 2001
Categories: Electrics, ECU, Warnings & Lights
When you start the car up the rev counter works perfectly. The car can sit running for 30mins & rev counter works the best. Bur when you drive it sometikmes it could be 2miles or 10miles the rev counter stops working also the speedo stops and the indicator direction lights on the dash dont work but the indicators are working outside the car fine. You have to swith the car off & back on again and everything is fine for approx 1mile and then all over again the fault appears.
Has anyone had this problem ???
Im thinking the dash cluster is heating up and failing!!!!
