Default Re: Intermittent digital display in the dash

Tech 1 is roughly about 500 bucks for a complete unit with cartridges.

If your display is working press the trip/odo button until you see 1.1 in the lcd panel. Then hit eng/met to enter. You can use inst/aver to scroll. A C12 indicates no issues. Then you know you have a wiring problem.

Hmm after you drop the steering wheel, driverside Hush panel, Steel reiforcement panel, IH Bezel for the first time.... Maybe... a better estimate is about an hour and 15 minutes and one beer lol

With the exception of the tach the digital display for the MY92-MY93 is the same. I am not sure if that piece only can be pulled from the IH group maybe Jeff knows

Make a "U" shape out of the paper clip. Hook one end into the A port on the ALDL and the other end into the G port. Turn the key to the "run" position. This will enable you to enter the CCM diagnostics. The CCM will automatically start cycling through the modules and codes with pauses in between each one. It will give you this information where the digital speedo is.

From what I'm hearing, the displays suffer from failure due to cold solder joints. Pull the display and carefully look for crystallized solder joints and re-solder with a small iron (if you're really brave). Else send it to

http://www.instrumentclusters.com/

for repair. They got my 91 L98 car's working fine after I got tired of fooling around with it for many years. Wifey is happier now that she can see the gas gauge.
