Like I said previously, I think your IPC is bad. You should be able to disconnect the DIC button switch and still have normal functions except for using the DIC buttons.

Suggest you get a used IPC. If you can install a DIC switch you can install an IPC. You will just need to have the odometer mileage reset. A shop or dealer can do that.

MAKE SURE a replacement is HUD compatible.

What is the mileage on the car. We have dozens of complete clusters in stock. That would be the simplest and quickest.

Thanks again Marc. That is why I always recommend you as the first point of contact.

Scott, if you want a shop to do it I can recommend one in Summerville and they can reset the mileage too. They could do it in a couple of hours easy.
