Both turning indicators on and LCD black indicates bad ground. A common problem that is not too difficult to fix.

You will find a lot of information here: http://batee.com/articles.html

Hi

I had the issue where the dash went blank and had high beam and both indicator lights illuminated, was the connector pins between the boards a common problem.

The ground goes through one of those pins over time the connection goes bad.


The batee kit was cheap and fixed the issue.
