Replaced my mfd led's a few weeks back for neon blue 1's. no problem fitting them, but the last few days the mfd has been resetting itself and the temprature gauge starts at about -38 when you turn on the ignition.  could their be a loose connection somewhere or has the mfd seen better days??
has anyone else had this problem???
many thanks fellow cs'ers

rite, i'm a novice but from what i know the connection plug at the back of the mfd is extremely fragile and any attempt to rip it out can break the solder connections - this is no doubt whats causing the problem, sounds like a bad connection and im sure the easiest way to resolve it would be through buyin a replacement mfd out the scrappies...hope this helps

ive had 3 mfds they clip on easy enough but getting them out is the hard pard.. pretty much the connections have gone from pulling it out. its stupid cause you cant tell if the bulbs work until you plug it back in
