Dashboard short 2004?
Hi,
I have just under 6000 miles on my new 2004 Cruiser. A couple days ago I went to get into the car and noticed my dome light was on. When I got in the car the "door" light was on on the dash. I opened and closed all the doors, the dome light stayed on and the "door" light remained lit. I got in and started driving and noticed I had no instrument panel at all. No tach, no speed, no gas, no lights, nothing. Everything else on the car was working fine (ran fine, lights worked, radio, air, etc).
Took it to the dealer who told me the dash had shorted because of a buildup of static electricity. They are replacing the entire dash.
I called a friend who is a mechanic who told me that Chrysler is having trouble with the PT Cruiser dashes and that's probably why they are replacing it rather than just resetting it.
Anyone hear anything abou this?
