Before I make a call to service.

Is it normal for the DIC to be a jumbled mess when you first start the H3? It is a bit chilly here in MN and every morning when I start the truck the DIC is a jumbled mess. Takes a good 10 minutes for the H3 to warm up and it seems that as the vehicle warms up the DIC becomes more readable.

Doesn't sound right Chief. It kind of "jumbles" when you first start, but that only lasts long enough for everything to test and cycle through. Should be fine in a matter of seconds.

It's in the teens here in Ohio and I'm not experiencing that problem.

Doesn't sound normal, mine comes right on after a few seconds and we have been in the single digits for a couple of days in the morning.

Yeah, I would get a dealer to check that out. I live in Houston so I don't get cold weather, but that can not be normal.

That's not right Chief, The first pic is right but that should be gone within about 5 seconds or so. It's just running it's "systems check" then goes to normal. Like D Vader said, it's been pretty cold here in Ohio. Probably not as bad as it is there in MN but it has been in the single digits the last couple of days. Never did that. Cold shouldn't effect like that.
