The van did have a little difficulty shifting, but nothing major. Spit, I tried the switch of relays and no difference, for me anyway. What does this mean? Is the PCM, or whatever it is on the left side with the big plug going into it on the firewall left side, bad? Would this account for the no gauges and no odometer/trans range etc? Seems like they are unrelated, but I could be wrong. Sometimes it would rev higher, but most often it would die out. As I was tapping the PCM with the engine running, the van would cut out as I tapped. Then I tapped the left side, which I believe has the PCM. No change in the tachometer or fuel and temp guages, as this is the main problem. The right side front has the Body control mount, of which I tapped with a hammer and no change while the vehicle was running. After looking and looking at the modules under the hood, I found this. I tend to think that the cluster is not at fault. So, I am assuming they either come that way, burn marks are where they assemble the product, or this assembly was bad also. It had the same burn marks on the odometer/trans range boards. If I've given some new info, what's your next move? I can definitely resolder, but doing that will probably make the joints overlap. I clear codes for 1698, but they come right back.
#Gauges arent working but dashlights are code
The engine light gives me a code P1698 for manufacturers controlled and auxillary. When trying the instrument panel diagnostic, there is no light up at the odometer or trans range for anything.
I checked all those things I mentioned before. I have had no luck trying to get them to work.
It's not a problem for me to set a new drop of solder on these, I'm just wondering if I don't have the same problem or not. The other board that contains the gauges is totally separate and I didn't see anything that looked unusual there. It looked like a half inch circle of black or burned spot underneath the glass covering. The separate cluster board that has the odometer and Trans range selector on it, both pieces of glass had a, I guess it could be called a burn spot underneath the glass in the left bottom corner of the odometer one and the right bottom corner of the Trans range one. The connections look good with the naked eye but may be faulty.
