Black IPC help

[D-a-n-i-e-l]

I know this has been covered but I have a few things going on. I went off no warning signs.

What are some simple checks?

Also most common reason for them going out.

Thanks for the help.

Not matter what has stopped working my rule of thumb is this. Check the fuse. If that is good I then look at the component that is giving me trouble as bad as I never think the wiring has failed. That is why I keep known good working replacement parts on hand.

 However you can pull the IPC check the connection and then reinstall. If that doesn't do it the IPC is bad.

(I would say about 85% of the time it is a bad cluster. The other 15 percent it's a bad ECM. )

I may have to take you up on that. The only one I could find near me did not fix the issue, and was untested prior. I did all the checks in the FSM, but it only covers the power and ground inputs. I really do not want to swap parts to figure it out but that looks to be the best option.
