    The Driver Info. Center(DIC) is not functioning. Have checked fuses, all OK. The clock LED does not light up also. Fuses OK.

    Most likely the bulbs are burned out.

    The radio is a common one.

    the DIC dont go as often, but still can.

    DIC bulb on my '98 is burned out. You can see the display still depending on how the light hits it, so I know the DIC itself is good. Get a light and shine it at some angles to it and see if the DIC still works, but the bulb is just burned out. Rules out needing a new DIC. I've had the clock display burn out in my '00 before I put in an aftermarket.

    Remove the dash bezel, unbolt DIC and remove it. Then you should see the bulbs on the backside.
