No it doesn't sound true!!! sounds like a possible printed circuit board failure in the instrument panel. If it ever goes out completely hit the top of your dash with your hand to see if it starts working.

I have been that route with my daughter's 96 Neon. It was a mess of cold solder joints on the main board that makes up the instrument panel. I haven't had to get into her 2000 Neon dash yet but it may be the same thing. If you pull the panel out and there is a board that everything is wired to, check for cracks in the solder joints with a good magnifying glass.
