seekaire,Welcome to irv2

If the cluster cannot detect j1850 data bus activity, the message "No J1850 Activity" is displayed on the message center. How do you plan on taking to WH center if it doesn't start? Call WH hot line a explain what you have on display panel. DO this even if it will start. I would unplug plug on back of panel an replug to see if it would reset display.I can access my panel, not sure about yours, not sure if you would want to try it also. You could also check all power wiring an gnd wiring around the front firewall area. Go to "FIND" Type in {gnd wire} you will get alot of info on this . "007"

Sounds like the computer is messed up. A long shot might be to disconnect the chassis battery for a few minutes, on the chance that it might reset the computer when you reconnect.

Also check for a loose ground wire attached to the interior firewall down around the steering column/brake pedal area. If it's not properly grounded, neither the ignition or injectors can fire.
