Thanks for the information. I could not really see any cracks and when tested for continuity they checked good. But everything else looked good on the boards so I just took my soldiering iron and re-did the solder connections.... and sure enough it is now working.
This worked for me. Well used 00 01 02 03 comp/temp mirrors. No screen display, took a chance and resoldered each of those resistors. Comp/temp screen working. Thanks for the video 👍
Thank you, i had just taken my mirror apart cleaned everything and put it back together after going off other videos and finding nothing wrong. Your video came up next in the autoplay, so before reinstalling my mirror and finding it still didnt work i checked the resistors. I found the furthest one to the outside cracked. It was not as obvious as yours but with some light and magnification i could see the solder had a very fine crack. I reflowed the solder and assembled my mirror, put it back in my truck and it lit up perfectly.
I can confirm that the same issue with cold solder joints exists in the instrument cluster. Not only with the DIC display, but also for the DIC control buttons on the steering wheel, as those buttons are wired to the instrument cluster where their resistors are located.
I have a similar problem but resoldering the joints didn't fix it for me. If you say bad solder joints are the problem 9 out of 10 times, then I must be the 1/10 time where it wasn't the problem. The problem was that the voltage regulator on the main board that was toast and had to replace. It's a 8M05 voltage regulator sitting between the 5-pin connector and the display daughterboard.
Same problem on my '03 Suburban. Took it all apart to investigate. The solder wasn't the issue. The fuse wasn't the issue. The search for the solution continues.
1:31 - is this harness/connector for temp. sensor? (the box on the mirror support is a temperature sensor? for outside ,inside temperature?) I have a small box on the support and this box is attached to the mirror. i'm wondering what is this...
The guy that replace the led lights burnt the hell out of the circuit board. I pulled it all apart to see what the problem was. What a joke whoever attempted the work. Even led lights on the outside of the truck. Made a of issues for me to fix. Now my truck has nothing but led lights and all work just fine. Lol

Repaired mine today! It was cracked just like you said it would be. Thanks so much for the video!

Thank you! Re soldered my resistors yesterday and my temp/compass works again! 2003 silverado 1500
Great video bud....I followed to the letter and fixed my 2003 mirror. You the man!!!
Your welcome! Thanks for the reply

Good to hear! Thanks for the comment!
Thanks for the video. Soldered the three resisters and now mirror works fine.
Yep, that fixed it for me! Cracked solder joints at the three surface-mounted resistors. Thankful.
I fixed the intermittent PRND321 fading in and out on a 2003 Chevy Tahoe....same type fix for this too - touch up the solder on the resistors
Awesome! Thank you! Exact same problem, exact same repair and now it works just great.

Thank you!! Did the same repair now I know how 🥵 / 🥶 and where I’m going. 👍

Worked great. Fixed it for me. Thank you !
Thanks for the video. My mirror is having the same problem. Looks like I am going to start tearing it apart to see the problem.
If you need any direction, let me know
Mine is on a 2006 silverado 2500hd. Hope it goes well in trying to repairing it. Thanks again. I will reach out if I get stuck.
You are the figgn man. I was so tired of that not working. Same issue an now its fixed
Good deal! Thanks for the comment
I had the same problem but it was just a 15 amp fuse called “air bag” fuse 36
Very cool. thank you
1:31 - is this harness/connector for temp. sensor? (the box on the mirror support is a temperature sensor? for outside ,inside temperature?) I have a small
box on the support and this box is attached to the mirror. i'm wondering what is this...
I'm not sure what it is. I did not investigate into the board when I had it apart.
@@sw2steve77 thx. Ps maybe somebody know something about this box?
Fuck I was waiting for the soldering.
Thanks I have same Crack:) easy fix :)
The guy that replace the led lights burnt the hell out of the circuit board.

What a joke whoever attempted the work.
Even led lights on the outside of the truck. Made a of issues for me to fix.
Now my truck has nothing but led lights and all work just fine. Lol
I have a 07 newer mirror I’m guessing that looks a lil diff. Have y’all seen any videos on fixing those? I tap the screen it will come on
Sounds like a solder problem
My compass and airbag lights only show when i hit the brake pedal
Where can I buy spare display?
Mine lights up but it lights the whole display up instead of displaying the direction and the temp, could this be the problem with mine?
I dont think it is. You might have a broken solder joint on the plug to the board.
Mine will occasionally light up "XXXX" everywhere, flash on & off randomly then go black again for a few weeks.
John Girard That’s what mine does as well, But it actual works about 10% of the time and the other 90% it has The X’s on like you’re saying.
Why are my rearview mirror wire get red hot 🔥🔥
Sounds like you have a bad connection. There is resistance in the connector or somewhere
😎👍
