I've had an intermittant failure of the console, and now it's completely gone. I had a local dealer look at it and they gave me a price of over $500 to replace. About 100 of it was labor. FYI. I've decided to live without it for the time being.

PULL, my 99 SD overhead died, there is a fix for it, the flat resistors, come unsoldered. Just pull down, it kinda snaps in, then there are screws that hold the ckt. board and display.

As I wrote earlier, I decided that I could live with out the computer if it was going to be +$500 to fix. The dealer pu the old one back in and it has worked perfectly since then. Must have been dirty contacts?
