THis morning. Got into my clicking, clacking 92 Voyager AWD and turned the radio up good and loud to cover the engine noise. Had a butt going when I noticed the smell of burning electronics. I was HOPING it was the neighbor burning whatever junk he throws in his wood stove. Then I noticed the wisp of smoke coming out of the grille between the top of the instrument cluster and the 'information center' where the turn signals, et al are located. Hmmm.....turned the radio off. Still some smoke. Used the windows on stores, etc to check the operation of the lights, OK. Windows, OK. Power door locks, OK. Should I go home? Nah, the Scrap Yard is on my way to the bank...
Get out of the bank and notice how warm it is outside. Hmmm...wonder what the temerature is. No temperature. No AVG MPG. No MPG. No ODO. No info, no light, no nothing. THe overhead console info canter was GONE. All the dome lights worked, just no info center.
So, the question here is, where does this circuit come from? Is there a connector behind the instrument panel? Is info from the IP sent there?
Any ideas?
But! The motor is still clacking away!
