overhead message center thing?

[Mudracer80]

When I bought my truck the overhead message center thing that tells you your gas milage and such didnt work but I figured it was just a fuse. I was looking in my manuel and cant find wich one it is, so before I start pulling them out one by one I figured I would ask and see If anyone else knew of the top of there head?

heres a bump!

I have a 2000 F250 w/ the same problem. I checked the fuses (every single one) and it doesn't exactly say which one, so I went thru them all. All fuses are good. I need to replace it I guess....unless any suggestions on this site. I also need to find out how to install it as well. Hate to pay someone to do it if I can.

Thanks Dawg7508. Read the post and although mine looked a little different, I found a loose resistor, resoldered it and the thing works perfectly!!

This happened to mine as well. I resoldered the resistors on twice. The 3rd time I had to replace the resistors and havent had a problem since...
