Hello Heavy Equipment forums.I have a pc-40 with about 450 hours on it [bought it new in 2005].The moniter panel has gone dead ,none of it works.For the past year it has worked off and on,one day fine the next day no go.The fuses are not blown,I just tried replacing the ignition switch today but that did not help.The machine runs fine just no instrumentation lights or speed control.I guess I will run an extra ground to the cab and see if that makes a difference. Has anyone had a similar problem or have a suggestion of what to do next. On ebay the control panel sells for 1200$,I can not afford that right now. Does anyone repair these ? Thanks for the help Unclebear

I would start at the monitor and clean and polish all the terminals from one end of the harness from the other.. I have seen this a few times on the mini's.. And even if a ground strap looks clean, pull it off and sand it down..
