When I got my '99 Rodeo three years ago I had a faulty speedometer and fuel gauge (still have a faulty fuel gauge). Speedometer and odometer would stop functioning, so I pulled the dash and put in a 'verified working' gauge cluster from ebay. But this doesn't have the same symptoms or issues it seems, so I wouldn't start throwing parts at it.
It seems like you may have an issue potentially with voltage though - If multiple electrical systems are acting up sporadically, I'd start looking at the battery, how old is it, have you verified the charge on it?
It seems partially like your Alternator is working when generating enough power but it may not be at low rpm and should also be checked.

Rain or using your wipers? I think the extra load from the wipers could contribute to the lack of electric power.Rain seems to make it worse
