Welcome to this forum! I've moved your thread into the stock 95-01 section.

Chances are, your circuit board in the overhead display has cracked solder joints. There are some threads on here that cover the repairs.

If the sensor was damaged or missing, I think the display would show some sort of error messages instead of going blank.
