In a previous paper arXiv:2406.06294 [math.NT], the author proved the exact formulae for ranks of partitions modulo each prime p≥ 5. In this paper, for $p=5$ and $7$, we prove special vanishing properties of the Kloosterman sums appearing in the exact formulae. These vanishing properties imply a new proof of Dyson's rank conjectures. Specifically, we give a new proof of Ramanujan's congruences p(5n+4)≡ 0 5 and p(7n+5)≡ 0 7.
