Looking for some help on a overhead console for a 1999 blazer.

The directional part is not working now. It worked up until last week. I did not do any thing to the blazer that would cause this. Everthing else works but the directional part just shows something like the letter C, ONLY IN THE DIGETAL FORM if you know what I mean.

Also, I was thinking about putting something like this in my project. Question?
wher are the sensors located at? I know that the newer ones are computerized today. I'd be ok with just the temp and directional part. Naw! I'll take it all.

Temp sensor is behind the grill, not sure on the rest.
