Problem with the Mileage screen

I have a 1999 F-150 and it has a problem with the mileage screen, its electronic, and sometimes when I start it up the screen wont come on and if I hit the cover on the dash it will turn on, and while driving it will go out or tonight it started to fade out really bad and I had to hit it kinda hard to get it to come back on.... Whats the problem with it? Is it a short?

Sounds like either a loose componant on the circuit board or one that is failing. Getting it repaired or replaced is probably the only cure.
