Did some research on Google and found a few convertibles that had an issue with a bad or shorted capacitor on the gauge cluster that needed replaced. This fixed their issue. Other than that, I would try to test and/or replace all the fuses related to the cluster.

Here's what they posted for a cluster test for an E46:


Have you tried the cluster test?
1. Hold Trip Reset while turning ignition key to on position
2. OBC should show "Test"
3. Repeatedly press Trip Reset to select function 19.0 to unlock all of the features
3. Wait for display to show "Off"
4. Depress Trip Reset for 1/4 second and release it
5. With no delay press Trip Reset repeatedly until 2, or 2.0 maybe, is shown and stop. All the gauges should go through their full range of motion.
