ok i just bought my 2000 GTP on last fri..and noticed that the Trip computer/DIC doesnt really work,it doesn't give avg mpgs,oil life,avg econ,boost gauge,etc..all i get it is blinking 0.0 in every mode..here is what mine looks like
what is goin on here??? any ideas?
09-02-2010
srsly no one has ANY ideas on this????
09-02-2010
isnt that a pcm program or something code not sure
09-03-2010
thanx torqe..so any real definitive answers on this cuz i need this thing to work.

could be corrosion on the connector behind the the DIC OR a bad connection all together i would pull it out and check that first ... I also noticed your Boost gauge isn't comming on in the picture ... could also be a bad DIC.

my car does this for about 5 min when i get into my car but if you hold reset it works and then the traction comes on

i thought there were some threads about this already? search!

Could be a brick of a PCM.
Either that or its still in programming mode.
Check the connections to the PCM and if that doesnt help its time for a new one.

This sometimes occurs if the DIC is bad or the data line from the PCM to the DIC is bad.

well i had some time today after i dropped a girl ik off at work,so i pilled the DIC out...there is not burn/surge marks on the circuit board at all and the plug is fine..so i looked the wires that lead to the male end of the plug,and they are ok too..guess this means i have a bricked DIC..were am i gonna find another GTP to steal one outta lol..this is one of two GTPs ive ever seen in my area.

i will have to re assemble mine and try this...i pushed reset b4 but didnt hold it..and would it make a diff if urs is the GT DIC and mines the GTP one?
EDIT-ok i tried it and took a lil 2 min drive and reset it like 3 times..still flashing 0's at me damn it

it will be compatible,the price is ok for $55 shipped. if you cant find another deal this will work
09-12-2010
actually now mines not working at all, and it started after i got my starter replaced... damn mechanics
09-14-2010
Mine was dead when I bought it. The guy said the battery went dead on him, so he replaced it and the DIC has never worked again. I checked all of the fuses I could find and they are all OK... So do these things go out all the time or what? Is there a fuse on the unit itself maybe?
09-14-2010
yeah i 2nd this,idk if a dead batt caused mine but if there is somethin like that,itd be great.
09-15-2010
I'd try a new (used) one from a yard. PM Kfish to see if he can get you one or search ebay.

i took off the dash panel and moved some wires around, so now it works idk but thank god
