Overhead Console
haha i can't wait to see what i get on the way home and then how accurate it is its getting 11.5 right now because i've done nothing but short trips in the cold since i got it hooked up
i am trying to do the same thing to my 99 durango i was wondering if you could give me abetter idea of what color wires go to what color wire on this brown boax behind the fuse box please i reall want to get this done
Yeah man, it got down to 32-34 below at school this jan. and its so cold it starts to hurt your lungs. -45 is stupid. It was a week before it got above 0 and it was a loooong week lol.
Here's my question. I got a overhead trip computer out of an 2000 Durango. I had it installed in my 2001 Dodge Dakota. I used these instructions from another website. http://www.dakotaquadsquad.com/id37.html
Here are the following things that are working:
1.) Temp. Sensor is working
2.) Elapse Time is working
The compass is stuck on "Cal". I did everything per the owners manual for re-calibrating and now it's stuck on "CAL" and is always reading "N" (north). So the compass is not working.
Trip stuff is not working. It does however display DTE, AVE MPG, ECO, ET, TRIP ODO but is not actually showing (for example 13.0 mpg things like that)
I also do not have a violet/brown (+ CCD BUS)wire that I've read in other postings that needs to be hooked up. I do have a Violet/Yellow.
I'm not an electrical person, nor do I play one in real life.
I need help. PLEEEEEEEEase!!!!
Everything was followed as described in the instructions.
Thanks in advance.
