Default AC control display gone dark!

Hello all!

Well I know that this s another of the common C5 gremlins.... is there a link to tell how to fix this... I seem to remember a couple, one a do it yourself and one a guy who can do this!

I bet the corvette tax at the stealer is very steep!

thanks!

15 minute swap if that if your handy with tools.
Freds Corvettes in Houston has refurbished ones in stock and all you do is exchange them for like 80 bucks.
The dealer wanted like 360 and you will have the same problem down the line again.
If you need it fixed asap let me know and I'll do the leg work for ya, cause he's just down the street from me.
