Default Configure Options Message while driving

My C5 has started a sequence of looking at all the options found on the DIC while I’m driving. It sometimes bounces back to normal DIC on its own. When it happens it will give me series of 6 digit numbers like 423111. Can anyone help me diagnose this gremlin?
Thanks!

Drat - saw your title and hoped to be reading answers or suggestions. My ‘99 just started doing much the same, although no numbers so far.
My only thought so far is to check my battery terminals for snug, as I have had the battery out somewhat recently. I will also see if I can find a reference for which ground the dic controller goes through. And, as a precaution, start looking for a reasonably priced dic switch.
