F150 2010 Cluster Panel

Reposting with better info. I am new at this and failed to provide all information.

My 2010 F150 XLT cluster panel intermittently shows error codes.

Error codes such as low tire pressure, traction control etc. I can clear the error codes by tapping the panel.

I removed the cluster panel and looked it over using a magnifying glass, looks fine.

If I gently wiggle the connector wiring harness where it inserts into the panel the error codes appear and disappear.

I believe the problem to be a bad connector. I sprayed the contacts of the connector and the cluster panel with electrical contact cleaner, it did not help.

I wedged a piece of wooden shim between the connector and the panel in order to create a pressure fit. This works fine until the shim wiggles loose,

Do I cut off the connector and wire in a new one or replace the wiring harness?

Any suggestions?

If you have the skills and the gear, re-flow the solder joints on the circuit board for the suspect connector.
