carfreak85 Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 THANK YOU!!! I'd love to get a couple spares for my dash. Let me see if I can't find any burned up ones for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbone Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 I have a few bad ones, but I suggest you use your bad ones for guinea pigs first before asking everyone for thiers. You need to have your cousin maybe fix one or two also. Then I think people will be shipping you so many your cous will be very busy.

blackbuggy Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 my dash is driving my crazy, and i cant figure it out, i also agree that there is one common problem, and it is fixable, my dash does not smell or look burned up in any way, and the alt checks out perfect.

subeman90 Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 I think I saw somewhere that someone thought that the voltage regulator on the board or voltage stabilizer on them goes bad and then they fry. I guess what I am saying is...just b/c you found the burnt spot doesn't mean that it is going to be a permanent fix. Just keep it in mind. Good luck though...I really like the 83/84 digi dash. Way cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ever Victorious Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 I'd be very interested in knowing the outcome of this, as the digi dash in my T-coupe went bad after replacing the battery cable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
