Default DIC stopped working after hitting pot hole

Has anyone had their DIC stop working after hitting a pothole in the road resulting in not being able to pull codes or reset messages? Very frustrating. More info, I replaced the DIC module 3 year’s ago.

Thanks for any insight.

After a big jolt like that the only thing that comes to mind is to check the connections on tne back side. Little bit of work to remove the cluster again, but that's where I'd start.

Also, maybe a button is stuck too.

Thank you!

i’ve had the car since it was brand new I’ve had some great memories enjoy driving it but I think the time is come to sell it to somebody who is an enthusiast and will restore it and give it a good home.
