If anyone has seen this before I sure could use some help. Thanks

thematrix17

Btw it is a 2000 Frc. Thanks

Did you look in the floorboard area, maybe it fell down in there?

Sorry, just struck me as humorous at the time. When you say "lost", are you saying that you have no power to anything, buttons, display, etc?

thematrix17

That's right,no power to the gauges,no lighting, and nothing on the dic. The car starts and runs fine though.

I'm not sure how the fusing works for those displays, but have you had the dash apart where a connector may have not been fully seated and fell off? Sorry, I don't have a wiring diagram for the power to the DIC, maybe one of our experienced electrical members can help?

clean/replace your ignition switch

Check/test/replace fuse 19 in the I/P passenger foot well fuse box first and we can go from there.

Hopefully the IPC internals have not gone South on you. Don't know where that phrase came from. I like it down here.

Unfortunately fuse 19 is fine. That was the first thing I checked.

Check fuse 25, g104 ground and splice pack sp208. If they check out, you will have to pull the cluster and check that the 2 powers and the ground are good. A headlamp bulb is a good load test. Terminal a13 pink wire is switched ignition. Terminal a14 orange is battery voltage. Terminal b13 black and white wire is grounded threw sp 208 to g104. G104 is located on the frame near the battery. Sp208 is in the Instrument panel harness, RH side of Instrument panel, grounded to G104 CKT 851)

Thanks Marty, I am going check these fuses and grounds after work today,hope I can get some life back into that instrument cluster.

That happened to mine a couple of times when I flashed a new tune, but came back when I re-flashed the tune.

thematrix17

Sorry not sure what flashing a tune means. Do you mean programming a tune into the ECM?

I just had to replace my entire ignition module. The cluster wouldn't light and the car wouldn't start, but the DIC was throwing down every code in the book. No problems since.

wcsinx

I already tried to tell him that. Let him finish his witch hunt. Maybe eventually he'll read all the posts.

thematrix17

Ya ya... Ok you are a real hero..

martysauto

If he has 12v+ at fuse 19 how will an ignition switch fix the problem? Hopefully he checked that and didn't just eyeball the fuse.

dadaroo

These are the IPC grounds you can check:

Grounds are G205, G104, G201

thematrix17

You are correct Marty,lots of power at fuse 19. It's not my ignition switch. I think I may have gotten some moister in the bcm as I did not use the car for a while. There was some dampness on the passenger floor. So I'm thinking my bcm has some white corrosion on the circuitry,or it is fried. I need a day off from work to get at this stuff. I will use the info you posted prior tho. Thanks again.
