Replying to: neustkg (Aug 07, 2008 12:59 pm) Hello,   Here are the words you were waiting to hear:   The fix couldn't be easier-   The temperature probe is "kaput" Open the hood and look down and to the left in front of the radiator. There's a little black gizmo (about an inch or so long) with numbers stamped into the side of it attached there with wires & a plug attached to it. Disconnect the plug and carefully remove it, chances are you'll break the attachment but don't worry, you can reattach the new one with a zip tie if it breaks.   Take the part to the dealer and get a new one - 2 years ago it was about a $ 10 part, might be a little more now but still cheap. The part # is stamped on the side so you can call around and get the best price. Once you've got the new one,just plug it in & reattach. Thats it and your display will be back to normal.     Replies to this message: neustkg (Aug 09, 2008 11:02 am) 442dude (Aug 09, 2008 1:28 pm)

I also need a new window motor for the very back passenger side window. Replies to this message: 442dude (Aug 09, 2008 1:28 pm)

I called them to see if they had it and they gave me a price on the phone (about $ 9-10.00) My wife went to pick it up and when she gave them the part # they asked her if the guy quoted her a price on the phone..fortunately I told her what to expect...I wonder if they would have charged her more?
