INSTRUMENT PANEL & CCDIC- DISPLAYS FLICKER OR TURN OFF

MODELS AFFECTED: 1986-1989 ELDORADOS AND SEVILLES 1987-1989 ALLANTES

Some 1986-1989 Eldorados, Sevilles, and 1987-1989 Allantes may experience flickering or blank instrument panel (IPC) and Climate Control/Driver Information Center (CCDIC) displays, possibly accompanied by code E047. This may be caused by a poor solder connection in the Central Power Supply (CPS). If both the IPC and the CCDIC displays are flickering or are blank, check the part number on the CPS. If it is 16058596, replace it with P/N 16088406.

Parts are expected to be available on March 13, 1989. Until then, normal part orders will not be accepted by GMSPO. Only verifiable emergency VIP orders will be accepted. SPO will make every effort to obtain parts. All pans will be placed on 400 control to waive VIP surcharges. However, the part will be shipped premium transportation at dealer's expense. All other order types will be cancelled as incorrectly ordered while the 400 control is in place.

General Motors bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, not a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform those technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, do not assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition. See a General Motors dealer servicing your brand of General Motors vehicle for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the information.
