My Overhead console has been acting up for awhile and it would go out and back on. For awhile if I'd tap it, it would work again but now it's not working at all. The lights work but the compass/temp/etc. doesn't work. Any help to get it working would be greatly appreciated, I like having it and it really sucks to have somethimg on your vehicle there but not working.
 
Jerry,



Someone will chime in on this shortly, but there is either a project on this or a member that has written it up. I had trouble with one that I sold to a buddy and we were able to fix the bad solder joint. I do not have the info at my disposal at this time.

It is a really easy fix. Take the console out and pretty quickly you can see which chip needs to be soldered, mine actually fell out.
