Hi, I have a problem on my 97 caravan, where the Instrument cluster goes dead sometimes.

I have read on a few different websites the following:

1997 CARAVAN TROUBLE SPOTS:
Dashboard lights: The instrument cluster, mini-trip computer and/or compass may show incorrect information or go completely blank due to a bad relay for the heated backlight (window). (1997)

my question is, does anyone know where this relay is, so that I can replace it or remove it?

I have the same problem. Did you ever figure it out?

if you have a dead cluster , go under the hood in the PDC just above the battery and pull the IOD fuse (nearest firewall) for 20 seconds and then reseat , this will fix a hung cluster a lot of times.
