re: Auto Check System Problem

[C1J1Miller@aol.com]

My "new" '91 200 had a similar problem, the "OK" wouldn't show at startup,
and the radio display in the check system display only worked with the lights
on.

My mechanic said that there is a crimped connection that was poor; he
soldered it and it works fine now.  Look at your display with the radio on:
 I could see the radio frequency without headlights if I shined a powerful
flashlight on it (indicating that the backlighting wasn't working, but the
display was).

Hope this helps,

Subject: Auto Check System Problem



My yellow Auto Check System screen went on the blink.  Unreadable display.

 It is now working again without problem, but it going out is obviously a

dubious sign.  Anyone else experience this.  Can I expect it to go out for

good....soon.  Is it expensive to fix?   Can you fix it yourself?



Any feedback would be appreciated.
