Default Help!! DIC buttons not responsive

Hello all. I am new to the Corvette world. I just bought my car last wk and 3 days after discovered the gas tank sensor was bad juring rush hour on an entrance ramp got it fixed through warranty and now I am stuck on something else. My car will show the miles on the DIC with the headlights on and it will show Active Handling being turned on and off. I pulled out of my garage this morning and it said low wiper fluid and I hit reset. Now I cant get the buttons to pull up my options like MPG, Average Speed, Oil/ Coolant temp etc.. None of them are working?? Any help/thoughts would be GREATLY appreciated. I have searched and searched with no luck??

I was going to suggest starting with the fuse too.

Default fuse 19

I have tried fuse 19 in the box close to the battery and it was good. I have read it might be because I didnt have it on one of he memory settings and tried that as well and it didnt do anything? I know the display is working because when I start the car it quickly goes through the Odometer and then says "Chevrolet Corvette" after that it blank... I can still see all of my levels on the cluster as well as on my HUD when I hit the button to toggle through the gas..oil..temp etc.. I am really stumped here. I dont know if the things I cant get to come up are a seperate wiring part than the cluster and everything else. I have no problems with anything else keyless enrty from reading I figured might be a problem but that is all working perfect? It happened right when the DIC said low washer fluid and i hit reset and then nothing? Is there some type of programming mode it could be stuck in or a setting where it doesnt read anything across the display??

Default Checked Fuse

I pulled the floormat back and got to the other compartment. Checked 19 and its good. What all do the BCM1 and BCM2 control? I read a few threads and there was one to either check 23 or 25 (which is BCM 1 and 2) but I cant imagine a Body Control Module fuse being blown would only affect that one thing?? (only from my experience as a car audio installer) I would think there would be much more affected if one of those fuses are blown.. (I would have checked them but the car is in my garage and it was tough enough trying to climb over the console to check 19 ?? Any more ideas??

I'm having about the same problem also. I bought a C5 this week and the DIC doesn't work. It is below zero here.
There is a TSB 99-08-52-002 talking about problems with the info center. I will check my fuses also.
