Question Speedometer lights not working when twisting throttle

2018 Fat Bob 114:
- I installed a cruise control module on my Fat Bob back in April 2021 and everything's been working great until this past weekend. While riding, the top portion of my speedometer stopped working (all upper light indicators, RPM gauge, and the cruise control stopped working). When I come to idle at a stop light, those lights come back on and I can turn the cruise control on (meaning the cruise indicator light comes on saying it's ready to be used). As soon as I twist the throttle (whether moving and starting from a stop, or just twisting the throttle with or without the clutch engaged), all the upper speedometer lights go out again. The bike rides fine otherwise.

- The cruise control module wires control the upper portion of the speedometer display, as well as the cruise control of course, so I checked the connection of those wires into the harness and it's secure.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
