    Here's my dilemma this time fellas. My DIC hasn't worked for quite some time now, but my HUD was always fine. I put 4 new bulbs in the DIC and decided to check if they worked. Everything was ok. I put the remaining bulbs in, go to check operation, and now none work. I later notice my HUD doesn't work. Everything else still works fine (chimes,lights,radio etc)

    I checked fuses, connectors, bulbs to no avail. Not sure what else it could be.

    You could ask your doctor if safe for you to take some pills.

    I think mine still works, I can see the display when light hits it.

    I will keep you in mind though if I need it.

    I know I'm bringing this thread back from the dead, but I didn't see the point in making a new one.

    How would one go about unplugging the DIC? I removed the two blue comb looking things and figured I could just pull the plug. That thing ain't budging and I feel like it's gonna break if I pull any harder. Am I missing something?

    No you're not missing anything. Just pull the plug harder.

    BTW I'm glad you brought this back cause this thread has some laughs

    Anybody happen to have a wiring diagram for the DIC circuit? I've already checked fuses, grounds, etc. and replaced bulbs with two different sets with no luck.

    I'm assuming it's an issue with the circuit board itself but I would like to know for sure. It's a '97 GTP if it matters any.

    He is and all he has to do is pay shipping. Boner, I'll get you the price for shipping tomorrow. Shouldn't be much since I'll send it in a flat rate box.
