Default DIC issue

2002 DIC issue. Have cleaned all the ground connections (including connectors and metal parts and frame). When i push the buttons on my DIC nothing happens. When I turn ignition to on or start engine the DIC reads the odometer mileage but after a few minutes it goes to "system TPMS needs service. When I push any of the DIC panel buttons - nothing happens. RESET dose nothing. Can't reset anything else. Also no lights under buttons light up. Could there be a button stuck? What's next to check or replace? Thanks

Could be a bad connection or wire inside the button panel. Without any other leads, I would probably try to find a used working one on ebay with a good return policy in case it doesn't solve the problem.

Thanks. I am going to pull the DIC button panel out to check for a wiring problem. If none found, I did find a panel for sale on ebay by a corvette shop. Will call to check on return policy. May purchase and try.

one of the DIC buttons stuck and burned up the DIC chip in your instrument panel. That cannot be repaired so you wll need to buy another set of buttons and an IPC
