Instrument Cluster Failure

Post by gformica »

My instrument cluster has stopped working . This occurred after I changed the battery. The odometer, digital display, is now blank.
I had read that this issue can sometimes be resolved by:
1. disconnecting the neg terminal on the batter
2. turning over the ignition to discharge the electrical system
3. re-attaching the battery

I tried this but it did not work.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
G.F
