14 Malibu US market

1. I need a power up if someone has one! I know I'll use bbb if no one has one. lol

2. Anyone run accross a cut out/power loss issue? Cluster will lose power intermitent and needles will stay at last position,
lcd screen turns off as well as backlights, only engine light stays on! sometimes comes right back on, others takes 5 minutes,
same when powered up in car sometimes stays on for 30 minutes etc.

Gonna power up see if I can reproduce issue, and reflow.
But I suspect maybe vehicle side issue, ground or module.
Any insight?

Oh customer said code was stored "Loss com with cluster"

Yes seemed like it but after a few times didnt work flexed board a little and seemed to duplicate problem so thinking
board maybe, but could be vehicle end connector ground?

Gonna reflow and maybe run a dedicated ground wire from vehicle connector to ground and cross fingers.
