This probably sounds really stupid considering how much this thing drives me crazy, but the lie-o-meter went out in my wife's EX (fuel mileage readout) and I was wondering what caused it.

Fuse blown? Something else?

Educate me...

If you do a search, you'll find the reason is two or more resistors that may have come loose on the circuit board, because of a bad soldering job at the factory....The 'fix' itself is easy, providing you know what you're doing , and know how to pull down the overhead consul, which is quite entailed........
A small soldering gun, and a few minutes time, and it's done...
UNFORTUNATELY, you'll have to do the search, as I don't remember whether it was on the site, or 'the other one'...

Good Luck:icon_wink:

get on ebay and search for overhead console repair or auto electronic repair, purchase the service send the module to them they will repair and send it back...think it cost 40 or 50 bucks....worked for me

Here is what I did with mine. It wasn't too hard, just tiny.
