Did you run that new ground wire off the ambient temp sensor? If not, you should try that. Either way, please update this thread with whatever works.

Re: Question about grounds for the digital dash (redfast)
Yes my turn indicators came on, high beem and everything else whent dim. The location of the grounds on the head is strait down from the rear of the drivers side valve cover front edge.
Im %95 sure that the problem isn't in the digital dash. It should be somthing that you should fix. So if you spend the $ to get a replacement dash you'll have the same problem you do know. I whent through the hell your going through a year ago and I did everything you did ( checked everything in the dash) and still everything was dimn. I drove around after that with the dimn dash untill I whent to rebuild the engine I cleand up the grounds on the back of the cylinder head and ever since the dash has worked great.

Re: Question about grounds for the digital dash (mikey whipreck)
I just thought I'd update you guys on my dash. I got it back from the dealership yesterday and so far its been working fine. I was told something was burnt out, and needed replaced- but when i asked the parts guy for specifics he couldn't give me any. Kinda frustrating, but my dash is working great... I'll just keep my fingers crossed. Oh, and the final bill was $225
