Ok guys... with 179,000 miles on my 2003 Excursion, my first failure... not quite... but it's distracting actually.
Last year, my overhead compass and MPG display started to no register properly. First the compass would stay in the calibrate mode and would not stay in the regular "compass mode" after repeated attemps to recalibrate.
The slowly the LED display starting going dimmer and dimmer, but the MPG function and "miles to empty" display and function always worked just fine... until last week... and finally the display has gone dark!!!!
So... what has happened?
What is the fix?
What is the cost to fix or replace the unit (main question of all of the ones asked)? What is best price available and what is availabel from dealer or from internet?
How long does it it take to fix?
Can I do it or is best to have the dealer do it?
What is Ford's part number for my vehicle below?
(2003 Excursion LTD, 6.0L, 4x4)
Thanks in advance,
Jeff
