My vettes' dash lights will intermittently go out and comeback on. It sounds like a ground problem to me, possibly a connection at the printed circuit. Has anyone else seen this before?????

About The Author
Gordon Killebrew retired from the Corvette Assembly Plant in Bowling Green, Kentucky in 1993 after 30 years with General Motors. After 17 years on the St. Louis Caprice Impala assembly line and occasionally on the Corvette line as a repairman, he went full-time on the Corvette line in January 1980 and then moved with Corvette to Bowling Green in 1981, working full time at the end of the line as a repairman. In 1988, he went to work in the plant's Action Center. The Action Center was the factory contact for GM dealers and owners to call and get their questions or problems resolved. He was also closely involved with the writing of Corvette service manuals, owner's manuals and dealer's service bulletins. He is the "Guru" of 1984-96 Corvettes and has written a book covering these problems and more of the operation and trouble shooting procedures on the 84-89 clusters. The book includes the part numbers for all the replaceable parts and is available from Gordon by calling 1-800-FY-VETTE.

Check over at Batee.com, there's a wealth of info there. Additionally, Bryan does repairs on C4 instrument clusters. Mine went out on my 86 the other year and I sent it to Bryan at Batee and had him repair it. Did an excellent job of it and it's worked fine ever since.i saw your post and i tried a few web links that other people posted but they are not working anymore....did you find out how to fix your dash problem because i have the exact same problem with my 1987 vette. and it goes off at any time not when i go over a bump, but if i tap the dash it comes back on...very weird
