hey has anyone ever had problems with the odometer staying on ....my digital odometer in my 99 jimmy is rarely on it may come on about once a month for about a day and the same with mylights behind my 4 wheel drive buttons anyone ever have to fix that problem
There was a wonderful thread within this forum on the subject of repairing the digital odometer and gear select indicator about 2 or 3 weeks ago. Lots of pictures and soldering illustrations. Basically the ground leads tend to be 'cold soldered'. Search and you should find it easily.
Edit; here's the thread

alright thanks i no what i am looking for now but i am not very good with little stuff so i didnt exactly pick up on HOW i am supsed to fix what i find haha i am realy new at this stuff think ya could dumb it down a little
Get a 15 or 30 watt soldering iron from Radio Shack and just barely re-melt the solder joint. If it doesn't make a smooth fillet, scrape the corroded board surface with the point of a straight pin and reheat again.
Hope this helps
PS did you notice that I edited my original post and added the link to the repair pictures?
