Description of the problem | While driving at 70mph on a flat road (81 south in virginia) in the rain, the instrument cluster and gps went dead. The dials all went down to zero, the computer read-out in the center cluster went black, and the gps went black. At the same time, the vehicle lost power (and speed) but did not stall. After only a few seconds the dials started working again, the computer read-out in the center cluster came back on, and the gps turned back on. Also, the power came back and i regained my speed. The power outage cleared my trip odometer readings and cleared to zero and my gps saved settings, such as home and address book, were cleared. I did not apply the brakes and there was no crash. There have been sporadic losses of power since and my instrument dials flicker, however they have not gone out totally like they did january 23rd. Days before the incident, i had taken my vehicle to a local dodge dealership for recall work on the fuel pump. |
