Title: Digital Dash Flexible "circuit board"
Post by: Steve B on March 26 2011, 09:20:42 PM

Any one know off hand if the Flexible "circuit board" that is used for the idiot/ Ts/ ETC lights are the same for the analog and digital dashes?

I don't think so.  Call John at Caspers Electronics (847) 647-1544.  He repairs them and would know for sure. This also may help you. http://www.installationinstructions.com/FYI/digitaldash.pdf

I found a pic of what's supposed to be the rear of a digital dash cluster. Not sure if it helps.

I also thought it was interesting that this wiring diagram from GNTtype doesn't specify analog or digital. Hmmm.

Analog GM#25076807

Digital GM# 25050012

Different pn# so i would assume some functions may not be wired

I've been having issues with my digital dash as well.  Seems to do some weird matrix looking crap every now and then......not sure as to why though
