DIC displaying blinking 0

HELP!

My Driver Information Center(DIC) (for search purpose) is showing blinking zero on all modes.
It's 98 gt and didn't come with digital DIC. I'm pretty sure tan wire to DLC-9 is intact and so is dark green to the back of speedometer(K). Other features(not so many left, but still) like door ajar indicators work.

All fuses are checked and a handheld scanner did power on upon connecting to ODBII port.

What to check next? help!
 




the how to on adding the DIC states that "Only 1997 models had a Check tire pressure light and are not interchangable with 98-2003"

Yes I know, it does have the text in front, but there's no bulb connected to it, as well as the ebay seller stated it as 1999.

Flashing DIC means a programming error of some sort...

I'd guess something logical as well. but where do I start?
It seems like there's a remote started installed by previous owner, though I don't have the remote for it. Factory alarm seems to be somehow disabled, and there's a wire going across the engine with a sticker saying it's got a remote start.
How to test if I'm getting correct signal? I've done trying swapping with another GP but I don't have any in my area;

ill trade you DIC's..i have a digital one from a 98 that blinks 0 on my 99 gp and u have a 99 DIC...worth a try....both of us would be happy if it worked out...also there is a junkyard here with one from a 98 gtp...which would also work for you...minus the TCS switch which would just be opposite

Its my understanding that any Tire pressure lettering means its a 97. Will not work out of any other year but a 97.

Here is the pic of mine.. There's slight difference with the actual 97 DIC..

Can anyone confirm this??
 
yea now that i think about it the 97's say "drivers information center" where the trac button is...i still think we should trade becasue the guy i got mine from says its from a 98 and yours is "from a 99" its worth the 5 bucks in shipping if it works...and both of ours would hopefully be working

Im not 100%, but I think that is for a 97 GT. The GTP's from what Ive seen have the words "Driver Information Center" in place of the TRAC button, also the tire pressure indicator leads me to believe its still from a 97, and the DIC wording is for the GTP's only. You need to find a 98-02.
