Default Instrument issues

I recently purchased a 2002. Sometimes when I start it the instrument control panel along with the radio do not come on. If I use the remote to lock and unlock the doors then it will work. Anyone else have this issue or have any suggestions.

Retrieve and post any diagnostic codes from the DIC, it maybe the Ignition switch contacts as well.

The DIC also doesn’t come one. The headlights work but not the fog lights. It is really quite odd.

You posted that the dash works when you use the remote to lock and unlock the car, if there are any codes they will be stored and you should be able to retrieve them.
