Digital Dash Problems

[gradymotorco1]

Hello, this is my first thread posted here, and I posted because I have some problems with a Lincoln. I am thinking about buying a 86 Town Car Base, with est. 120,000 miles, with 2 problems. 1. is it needs a muffler, which is no problem, because I run a garage, but 2. is something I have never seen before, a Digital Dash that is completely dead. No power, No speedo, No NOTHING. It is just a black dash. I really hate to go and call my ford dealer that I buy parts from, and I have a set of Ford Manuals, but I need to know is it hard or easy to fix this kind of problem.
If you have a answer post or e-mail me devilleconcours100@hotmail.com
Thanks, Dave : :feedback

I think you need replace the whole thing like digital dash cluster and message center brain unit box (under the dashboard). You can find it at the junkyard.

Digital dash Odometer error

I have an '84 Mark VII and the odometer fluctuates from my actual mileage numbers to an error message. Is there anything I can do to fix it? Thanks
