Default DIC Screen Blank

My 2008 C6 DIC screen went blank (nothing even when first started) when the weather turned cold. Its done this before but when the car warms up it has come back. This time it has stayed off. Anybody else has a problem like this? Thanks

blank NAV is one thing. blank DIC is another.

i have located 3 folks that had the blank DIC and in all 3 cases , no resolution was stated. your the 4th.

my only clue , which is the discussion of another with the problem, is the bcm connection(s).
in the passenger kick panel under the carpet, possible bad connection(s)????????????

if you resolve the issue , be sure to post it.


fyi... i did a google search on all other model cars and well, they never said what they did either.... lol which sorta tells ya they took it to a dealer.
