2001 isn't one of the "problem" clusters. That doesn't mean they can't give problems they're just not the ones where they all quit working. The widespread (servo) problems started in 2003. The connectors are kinda janky on the 2001's. I'd take it out, unplug and plug it in a few times and see if it starts working.
I used to be a people person, but people ruined that.

I'm a little late on this one. Also check the ground on the driver's side cab mount under the driver's floorboard. The 8.1's have a ground there also. Most of these trucks end up with a ground issue at some point.
