none at all. No odometer reading. The dash cluster does seem active because the turn signal or hazard indicators come on just fine. ---

Balls…that no odometer stuff seems spooky. All the other stuff turns on though (wipers, lights)? ---

yup, headlights are brights, wipers work, wiper sprayer works, radio works, dome light works, I can shift the transmission when the key is on, I do get door warning light if the doors are opened so further proof the dash cluster seems good. I can open and close windows, the power locks work both the door controls as well as the key fob. I can set off the alarm with the panic button on my fob. I don’t like jumping to conclusions but I’m really leaning towards the computer dieing. the car does have 220k miles on it. I can’t remember where I was reading about it but I’ve heard it’s not super uncommon for that to happen. We did find a bit of a sheered wire going from the ignition coil for cyllinder 1. I’m not sure doing the plugs we shorted that on something which back fed to the computer or what happened. I did order a used computer (I did part match) it was about 40$. I figured hey if it works cool we might just need to reprogram. if it deosn’t then we’ll tear further from there. definitely not a fan of throwing parts at a car but I’m not sure what else to suspect right now outside of another wire short. Someone mentioned it going into a security lockout but I would assume that we’d still see dash lights as well as some security light staying on or flashing on the dash ---

the 60 and 120a main and alt fuses looked good. they’re transparent so it was fairly easy to check for breaks in the fuses and I checked most of the more critical fuses and didn’t find any breaks. ---

Sucks man. If 40 bucks fixes it that would be awesome. ---

I mean to be fair this car was only 350$. The front door was dented so we got a junk yard door, it needed an alternator and battery. it started running a bit poorer then noticed the spark plug gap was way out so we replaced those, took it on a drive and it was way better. We clean the throttle body and dead. So it’s not like I’m out a fortune but would like to get it back running again. Plus I’ve already learned a lot about things to test in these kinds of situations. I’ll definitely let you know how things turn out. If anyone else or yourself have anything else I should go to check. Please let me now. Thanks to those who have assisted already. I’ll keep everyone updated. “new” computer should be here in about 2 days. ---
