Thank you for the video I have a 2000 Ford excursion and I took mine part
and pushed all the black pins to make better contact and it fix the
display. Thanks
You need to re-flow the solder to the surface mount resistors (black chips
he pointed out in the video) with a soldering gun. Some lead-free solder
would also be useful. Just fixed a similar problem on another brand of
truck.
@goldens984 – yes, the little black chips will fall out of place over time
but if you don’t want to pay over $100 for a new motherboard then fixing it
again. And do NOT use superglue to hold the chips down. I used superglue
and it worked for a little while but now they wont make contact any more
and i cant do anything to fix it.
Thanks for the video dealer wanted $500+ to replace “burned out unit”
thanks to you done spending $9.00 for the Torx set. FYI on the 2000 F-250
don’t have remove inner shell just unscrew led housing.

The chips work their way loose due to heat from the roof.
