Car 1: 2007 Acura TL Type S
Question Strange Odometer Display Code

I just bought a 2007 Acura TL Type S. It is an awesome car! I am getting what I think is a code that appears in the odometer display. When I get in the car I get the normal "Welcome Driver 1" message which then turns to the odometer reading (miles) and then within about 30 seconds the odometer display goes blank and starts flashing what I think is a code?? The code that is slowly flasing is "b1010 10" ?? I have noticed, and I don't know if this is related, that the dome lights flash a bit strangely as the display changes to the "code" but other than that the car drives and handles great, but while driving all I see in the odometer display is b1010 10. I have had it in to a dealership here in UT, and they had it for a week and couldn't figure it out. I hope someone can help me figure this out and get it fixed. Thanks in advance for any help or advice.
**Update**
I drove the car at night for the first time tonight, and when I turn the headlights on there is about a 10 second delay and the code goes off and I have my regular odometer and temperature display. But whenever the headlights or off, the b1010 10 code appears.

DTC B1010: MICU Lost Communication with Door Multiplex Control Unit (Panic Message)

Check for an open or loose connection in the communication circuit between the MICU and the door multiplex control unit. If the circuit is OK, replace the MICU. If the circuit is bad, repair the open.

I am now back to the drawing board. HELP!! I have checked for the open or loose connection between the MICU and the door multiplex control unit. I have replaced the MICU.
The only thing that I can think of is that we may be talking about different messages. The error message you quoted above is DTC B1010 (I don't know what DTC stands for) but the message that is blinking in the odometer display is exactly "b1010 10" just like that with the space between the 2nd and 3rd 10's?? The other thing that I noticed is that when the headlights are turned on, the error display goes away?? Is that somehow linked?? Any help would be so appreciated.
