overhead consold/ display?

Mine is not working A few years ago I used as a show truck and had an enormous stereo in it to the tune of 8 - 12" subwoofers and 8600 watts, the truck hit 158.9 decibles @ 8 volts, the reason i mention this is because from either vibration or voltage drain the console stopped working and read CCD on it, I got one off of ebay and put it in and that one doesn't work either, it has been this way for awhile, I always wished it worked and now I have a bunch of poeople asking what kind of fuel mileage I get and I cant tell them with any honesty, any thought? BTW since then I took out most of the stereo and now have a smaller version

If you count on that overhead display for fuel mileage, then you will be sitting side the road out of fuel. Use a calculator to determine accurate fuel mileage. I need to replace the door on mine. How does that overhead come apart? I haven't seen any screws. I figure it snaps together, but just didn't want to bust it.

Dodge, mine is a light grey. I guess that is what you would call it. The little clip that latches the door, is broke and my door just won't close. I need to take it down and clean the gook off of it. I have tried gluing it shut, with no luck. So I will fix it sooner or later. If you have a door you don't need, that would be cool. It seems like someone told me you had to replace that whole console, that you couldn't just replace the door. I don't know. Looking for advice.

The CCD message means you have a communication error with the other modules. You will need to diagnose why it is not getting and ccd bus messages.

how do i do that what should i test? it seems to come on once and awhile but the fuel mileage thing doesn't fluctuate like it should, the direction function works when it lit up which isn't all the time, really weird

CCD bus diagnosis required. On the other hand a high powered stero could be introducing electrical noise into ccd circuit.
