It is the LCD segments that are not working correctly. Bits missing and at one stage myZR1 was the only Vette in Australia to reach 425 KPH.
I was under the impression that it was the chips that controlled the LCD segments. If not please tell me the good news and if there is a easy fix.
I had the same problem 12 months ago , and a mate resoldered some of the points in the dash, and it came good for 12 months then gone again.
Thanks for any help in advance. cheers Ernie.
I know for a fact you can change the LCD from narrow C4 vettes cluster.
