# SERVICE MANUAL UPDATE SEC. 8A DIAG. I/P DIGITAL CLUSTER

#### SUBJECT: SERVICE MANUAL UPDATE - I/P:DIGITAL CLUSTER U52 REPLACEMENT TESTS OR PRNDL DECODER

#### MODELS/YEARS: 1988-91 EIGHTY EIGHT, AND 1988-90 NINETY EIGHT

The PRNDL DECODER MODULE EXCHANGE TEST, found in the above mentioned Service Manuals is not practical due to the lack of new parts to tryout at dealerships. It also reflects a "parts changing" attitude toward diagnosis which should be discouraged.

The enclosed tests replace the PRNDL DECODER MODULE EXCHANGE TEST found on the following pages:

- 1991 Eighty-Eight, page 8A-82-15 (Test J) - 1990 Eighty Eight\Ninety Eight, page 8A-82-15 (Test J) - 1988 Eighty Eight\Ninety Eight, page 8A-82-16 (Test M)

Please update your respective Service Manual accordingly.

General Motors bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, not a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform those technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, do not assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition. See a General Motors dealer servicing your brand of General Motors vehicle for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the information.
