Default Digital Dash ground problem

I posted earlier on the dash. Like I said its rebuilt and everything is hooked up right. Long story short it still goes on and off so i assume its a ground somewhere. Does anyone have an idea of where i could find this ground..rumor its near the bell housing? I HAVE NO IDEA HAHA. Any help would be much appreciated

its on the bellhousing.
why would you think that to be inaccurate? grounds often go to big chunks of iron or steel.

or

the side of the block.

no bs. Its on the bellhousing,.GM put them in both spots. Fairly easy to ID...look for the stack of several black 12 &14g wires stacked on 1 bolt.

Default another ground point - driver side outer kick panel

Also check behind the 'kick' panel, by your left foot.

Important ground point and given its location, likely associated with dash.
