Default cluster issues

well... I am aware of the issues with a cluster on a teetea. It seems that it has began on my car, and getting worse... The cluster has been giving me irreguler fuel readings, total mileage, and MPG here and there for past year or two. But... you know unless these issues manifest themselves right there in front of dealer's eyes... the dealer wouldn't do anything...

Anyways... this morning... I start the car and notice that everything on the cluster is reading in "km". I am like WTF! Do you think this maybe the the battery on the car is getting weak and cluster is resetting??? I know I have to replace the cluster at one point when things get consistently bad. Do you think replacing the original battery would do some trick??? Thanks for your help!!! BTW I am driving '02 180CQ with a few minor mods.

If you're on a 5 year old battery, then Yes...I'd do that first.

I guess I have to do on-line... I don't think I have seen one in Autozone near me.
Thanks!
