Or connectors on the back of the dash cluster or DIC control buttons could be loose.

I'm glad somebody else was thinking my way, all these serious replys came back and I started feeling bad!

But tjcleary, I really do hope you find your problem and I didn't mean to sideline your post here, I was just trying to add some humor!!

Have a good one!!

ugh oh. ..... and at such a young age too.

Have you ever had the front dash removed, connectors behind could be loose/not making good contact.

Try disconnecting the negative battery terminal for a minute, then reconnect. Sometimes the network crashes and needs to be rebooted...
It happens to me occaisionally when I reflash my PCM. I just reboot the car... Must be an IBM...
