Digital Dash Problems

I have a '84 Berlinetta with a completely digital dash that stopped lighting up.
Anyone know what might possibly be causing this? I've tried a bunch of stuff.
Any suggestions would be useful. Thanks.

Re: Digital Dash Problems

If the digital section of the cluster NEVER lights up than it's most likely fried and needs to be replaced...... If the digital section of the cluster works - but goes Black when the head lights are turned on than the Light Module or the "dim" control on the Headlight Pod is the problem.

The only way to be sure is to plug in working parts or to start probing all the wires controlling the cluster.

I had to replace a couple of bulbs in my '87 GTA's digital dash recently. If it's just that part of the instrument panel, that may be your problem.
