Default 85 Digital Dash Errors

My 85 digital dash diplays random crap most of the time. I've pulled
the dash pod and can see no signs of corrosion, wiring problems or
physical damage. Any ideas as to where I should start on this?

Thanks,
Kevin

The connections between the circuit board and the LCD need to be cleaned
Taking it apart is difficult and you have to be careful not to damage
any components.

Are you sure that you didn't change the Display Language to "Klingon"?

Cheeze Diode, '85s didn't have Klngon, just ENG, MET and Elbonian!
