I had the exact same probiem and it will only worsen if you dont fix it immediately it a problem with the ECM and if you let the problem go on for much longer your truck wont even start and the odometer will start blinking "No BUS" check your rear abs Speed Sensor its 30.00 at OREILLEYS that could cause both your abs light to come on because that sensor mounted on top of the of the rear diff. serves two purposes its an ABS Speed Sensor. and it only takes 20-30 min to replace if your abs light is on and you spedometer isnt working is you rear diff ABS SPEED SENSOR

1999 dodge ram club cab 4X4

Sounds as though you've lost a grounding point to the firewall. Check the flat uncoated braided wire that runs from the engine block to the firewall and check it for integrity.Shoud be tight and clean. Secondly if you can get your hand up behind the instument cluster try to push the main harness group in with your fingers.
