ODOMETER does nothing but blink on digital dash(Search feature didnt help)

Hello.

I have an 86 trans am, with the digital dash.

The odometer does nothing but blink on and off and shows 999,999.

I'm no electronics wiz, and know even less about birds, but my guess would be check the electronic speed sender, it might not be sending the right signal and screwing up the odom.
Is the speedometer working at all?

Hi Im new to this and in England so you have half the problems I had...drop a email or call Specmo Industries for advice, great bunch of people. My '86 T/A electronic dash was serviced and repaired in a day. 10 days to get too and from England. Car is now running ok cracked lcd panel for mph. not cheap at $260 but it took me 2 years off the road to find a repairer. Try www.specmo.com contact details there in Michigan try Tom or Laurie for help free call in America. I was told to try United Radio but they dont keep spares now for the '86 T/As ......good luck
