tell both good and bad things now, just now.
key on, SEE self test of IP cluster (dash) all Lamps glow?
then engine starts or does not, key on to start.?
car does or does not drive.? well not with brakes dead. you took it in for service with brakes dead?
pedal went down at a stop.<<means pedal went to the floor?
be more clear on brakes. please.
the cluster dies for 4 reasons (tech)
fuses blown (hood up fuse box called TIPM
Ignition (keyed) switch failures
communication failures (Can_bus network) a digital dash is it.
Car main battery dead.
all you can do lacking tools is check fuses for BLOWN?!
Possible charging system problem causing low voltage. Have the charging system/alternator tested for proper operation..If charging system operating properly, possible ignition switch getting bad. You can gently rock the key back and forth with the vehicle running to see if everything begins working again. If so, the ignition switch needs replacement
Yes, it could be a loose wire, but more likely, if no fuses are blown and the rest of the dash panel is lit, it is a bulb inside the dashboard/odometer. Most of the digital dashes I have seen are lit through the clear plastic housing behind the matte finished masks. This is not exactly an easy fix, but it can be done.
you need to take the dash top off, remove the instrument panel, and check the bulbs in or behind it, to see if any of them are blown. It may save you a lot of work chasing down a loose/shorting wire.
Work the headlight switch round and round first. That's the dimming feature of the dash lights. Maybe they messed with it. Digital dashes have problems especially at that age of car. If nothing works see about a used one from a salvage yard
