Driver's Info center displays nothing

Hi guys,
Its been two days.. my D.I.C is all blank.
However the eng/met , reset, mode and the trac buttons are working (i mean they light up when driving at night times) . Before two days everything was working... it displayed everything perfectly (fuel used, mpg and everything...)

Does anybody know whats the problem... is it the fuse??
Thanks.

Just to be sure check the DIC fuse but if your climate control is working OK it will probably be OK since the fuse is shared. How does the DIC look around the area of the car? Is it dim, faded or blank? There are about 5 back illumination lamps in the DIC.

You can try replacing the bulbs in the DIC. It will require removal of the dash bezel and the DIC which is easy to remove. The lamps are special mini-lamps but Sylvania # 24 are suitable replacements. Available at stores like Autozone.
