2007 Grand Cherokee Instrument Panel Dead
 

My sisters 2007 GC instrument panel is completely out. Only thing working are headlights & turn signals (no sound though). The dash is completely dead including a/c & heater controls & all lights.......HELP!!! :icon_rant:

Checked the fuses? Other obvious things like the wiring connections? Pulled the cluster out and looked behind it yet? You have the vehicle with you....check some things....

Do you have a sunroof ?

No sunroof. When the engine first starts & runs for about 5 -7 minutes, the dash will suddenly "come alive". I've been told to check the ECM & related connections but, where is the ECM?

Thanks in advance,
Chuck

Why are you answering someone else's question?

I had originally asked the question on behalf of my sister. My BIL (CPE61) has since gotten his own account & is now awaiting to hear a hopeful solution.

OOOhhhhh LOLzzzz sorry

First place I would look is the junction block under the drivers side kick panel/column area. Sometimes water can get in them and make it all go nuts. More often because of a clogged sunroof drain, but also sometimes because of wiper cowl or windshield leak. Commanders and Durangos have the same kind of issues as well.
