Gauges shut down

I have an 2005 F350 4x4, 6.0 with 294000 miles. My gauges recently started to shut down on there own and then recover. at any speed with no effect on the engine. When I park and shut the system down, they all come back on again at start-up. However, they shut down again and then operate at will as I drive. Anybody know what's causing this?

Check your battery voltage and alternator out put it can cause it the gauges to shut down but could also be bad cluster having the codes read could help even with no check engine light. Maybe a moderator will see this and move your post to the 6.0 section.
