Same problem with my Guage cluster in my 04 Silverado. Sent it out to AutoTech Repair in Joplin MO they rebuilt it with a few upgrades I selected for $250. Has been fine since.

I have an 06 with the same issue with the blower speeds as u do . And my auto headlight switch sometimes works , sometimes don't . I know that when I got the truck 9 yrs ago level 4 never worked on the fan speeds . Now it varies .

not sorry you wasted 5 minutes of time to say not a damn useful thing for Pete's sake !

had a 02 inst. prob was a GRND issue on fire wall under driverside A pillar. Quick easy cheap fix

Talk about the RPMs not everything else

Yeah that little Bluetooth module is awesome I had the very same one and just to use the free app I use torque light it gives you battery voltage vacuum coolant miles per hour bunch of stuff bunch of stuff actually The torque pro it's only $5 it also gives you your wheel speed sensor values so it won't actually give you a code that tells you what wheel sensor is bad but you can monitor the millivolts and if I recall correctly the torque light also gives you O2 sensor voltages but I could be mistaken it's a pretty slick app

I have a silverado 2005 with the instrument panel not working and I remember that a recall was made.... i went to a dealer and get a new instrument panel!!

Have the same problem from what I've seen on KZfaq its a GROUND wire and Fuse thats behind the motor that needs repleaced... im gonna try it and hopefully that fixes all these weird electrical problems

GM had a recall for the speedometer stuck. What sucks is that they would only fix it if you were under 60,000 miles something like that.

dan i need your help man! what is the button on the end of rod on the left side of the steering wheel i have it on my truck and it goes alot fater sounds dumb but i cant figure it out for the life of me and how to turn it off it sucks up so much gas

I have recently been experiencing problems with my fob. I replaced the battery and was ready to replace it, when Batteries & Bulbs said it was not the fob, but some sensor inside the truck (2003 Silverado). Have you experienced this? My c.d. also would not eject, but I finally got the cd out, but am afraid to try another for fear I will lose it permanently. Thanks.

I just bought a GM cluster reman, the parts momager was to get back to me about the warranty , i will have to call Monday my after 2 months of waiting the gauges all of sudden driving down the road all the gauges quit. Newer piece of crap that charge more than worth for used 03 Silverado. my old school novas one SS pulled out 350 built 400 SB with racing cam it never broke down. I had brake ;lines leak, bought dorman stainless kit then O2 sensor failed, abs sensor had rust build up at the plastic mount cleaned it works fine. Longer I own less i want it. Thought about 80s era upgrade it less to go wrong, wiill never buy new or newer

I have a 03 and the cutton on the cluster sticks and changes the language. My 5th fan speed works about half the time. It's annoying they have so many electrical problems

Had same problem my 2004 gauge panel. I sent out the panel and had all gauges Step Moters replaced , problem solved. Cost was a little over $100. NOTE: REPLACE ALL MOTORS AT SAME TIME.

I have a 06 silverado work truck and the abs light came on. I did some research and it said there was a failure in the diagnostics cycle causing the abs to light up. Now my gas gauge stays at half full. No other problems yet, but could that be the cause?

The rpm is pointing to 6 😂

Very well done video my friend

My truck didn't start. Needed a jump start. Before I jumped it I attempted to start it at least 3xs. After it started my oil pressure, temp, battery an fuel gauges where all reading zero an no power to my doors or windows. The Heat, rpm an speed still works. Also the cluster stays on after the key is out an doors open ...????

I have a 2003 1500 four-wheel drive when i hit the brakes my turn signal stops and 4 ways light up on my dash...240,000 miles. Any thoughts on this. I just replaced my blower motor resistor and this happened

I'm having some issues with my 2004 Chevy Silverado 1500 4.3 liter I recently had my head's redone and now I can't seem to get it to crank u. I've replaced a lot of parts fuel filter fuel pump starter crankshaft sensor the whole ignition distributor is brand new from the rotor cap to distributor cap to the ignition new plugs new wires and it still won't crank

My battery guage is way above 19.

What if it still works but only when it want to? Mine was at a stop sign today at that thing went all the way to zero? And when im on the gas it didn't wanna hit over 2000 rpm. It does who's occasional and driving me insane

Thanks god my 2006 has 200000 miles and the blower is still going strong

ok 2003 Silverado my issue is intermittant. in others words you are driving along and all of a sudden the seat belt chime starts to ring then all the small gauges on the right go to zero, I lose the indication dash on the PRINDL ABS light comes on, seat belt light comes on. Now fiddle with the seat adjuster (which is messed up because pushing it forward makes seat go backward) click it back and forth fast, EVERYTHING comes back to normal. I took off all the body grounds and re did them so that is not the issue. The seat heaters do not work, Im about to replace them but I am beginning to think that it is the module under the drivers seat that is causing the issues Any thoughts?

I have two grou nds under h ood on drvers where should they hook up ones done where doess the second. Go

My 2005 silverado only charges at highway speeds, replaced alternator and battery both tested good any ideas

So I just bought an 06 Silverado 1500 with the 4.3 L Engine and my dash just goes dead no gauges function my radio will be locked and the security light will pop up on my dash any recommendations

I know I’m late to the party but my ‘05 had all these problems and more. Chevy won a class action suit against Delphi for the majority of their gauges being defective but Chevy didn’t pass that $ along to everyone. Only certain trucks got a replacement and only the spedo. I also had an electrical short somewhere which caused my engine to just die randomly.

My 03 Avalanche is doing the same thing. Only it randomly stops charging the battery. Haven't found out what's wrong with it, yet

I am having problems with mine.My light and the dimmer wheel knob does the same thing.I think its the gauges.Had mine rebuilt two year's ago.Mine are blinking abs and check engine light and other problems.Just ordered a new set for 250.00 on the net.

The Stepper motors that drive the gauge cluster needles fail on all these clusters. There are many companies that offer a repair service. It cost me less than $100 to get the cluster repaired including shipping both ways. Repair included replacing all of the motors and led lights. He also reinforced some solder points that hadn't failed yet but were likely to fail in the future.

I have a 2003 chevy 1500 i speedometer starter messing up like 4 years ago specially in the winter but it would always go back to working in the summer but today I crank it on and all my gauges don’t work not even my odometer nothing works any idea what could of happen to it ???

I may mount a military aeril dish animomitor incriptor on my chev van. That will solve my issues with whatever.

I have an 06 Silverado and half the dash bulbs are out, and the backlight for the headlights cuts in and out 🙄 Such a pain. I’mma take the dash cluster out soon and HOPEFULLY I am lucky enough to have one that has the twist out bulbs and not the soldered ones!

the blower is the resister

1:55 did u ever find a fix my 2006 chevyy suburban does the same thing also the head lights

Have 04 installed a new battery.then the AC defaulted to heat only wouldn't reset by touching battery pos.and neg. So took it to tech he when in the computer turned off everything then turned back on.at least it's the way I understood..next time I get a battery I'll be sure my AC isn't on...

Order new stepper motors for the cluster. Solder them in. That will fix the gage problems. I did that on my 2004 Suburban. Real easy.

Guys I have a different problem. My 06 chevy 1500 will start then stall and then my gauges start jumping very slightly. Just did it an hour ago. Any ideas?

My problem with my 2001 Chevy Silverado I have to disconnect the negative wire on my battery in order for my illumination lights to go off what causes that?

My turn signal stops working every time I step on the brakes

Pretty sure on that year the mileage is actually stored in the cluster itself it could be stored in the body control module as well but I'm pretty sure on those on those years you're talking about it's actually stored in the cluster

Replace the motors on the cluster. Ebay sells them as a ket with a soldering gun and things its easy

The heating problem sounds like a blower motor resistor sometimes the blower motor itself can draw too much current draw too many amps and that's what actually takes out the blower motor resistor but I've replaced plenty of resistors only and never had a problem again also some of those GM trucks were notorious for the wire harness with developed too much resistance and you had to replace the wire harness that plugs into the blower motor resistor and that was taking out the blower motor resistor as a matter of fact if I recall correctly the harness may have came with a blower motor resistor or the harness was sold separately cuz it was a known issue the heavy red wire would burn up

If you change the oil pressure sensor it should fix it mine had the same issue as that

Blower motor resistor under the passenger kick panel easy fix get a new one off eBay 30 bucks and dinner switch is a bad contact inside the actual switch ASLO 20 bucks on Amazon and the cluster go to junk yard and find one with similar milage and easy replacement also can do at home quite easily only need basic socket set to fix it all clusters go for 50-100 bucks used IV had all these issues and done it all at home my self in under 30 minutes

Orrrrr. Just have it rebuilt😶

I just had to buy a new one the dealer charged me 373.94 for a new one. That’s pretty good considering having your old one repaired cost ove 400. And buying a reconditioned one is about 300 then is has to be programmed that will be another 180. Just get the new one from the dealer. Give them the part number you vin mileage and hours

Your cluster panel is easily fixed. I had the same problem. Less then $100 in total with led free upgrade.

Actually this was some great advice especially about the OBDII scan tool. Not everyone has the time or they just don't want to be tearing their dash apart to "properly" fix their pretty truck. If the problem isn't affecting the driveability of the vehicle then find the easiest and cheapest "other" solution - until you have no choice but to do a proper repair. Like in the middle of Winter when none of the fan speeds work.

My 05 1500 is freeking haunted. 4 and 5 blower, tail lights explode, speedo flutter and chimes.chimes.chimes. fuel gauge does this exorcist all the way around thing... 71,000 miles.Never acts up at the mech. Shop.Its getting a new radio and a chimectomy as I write this.

Hey, have you done any follow up on the dashboard illumination? I have the same problem and I am trying to diagnose the issue. Thanks.

Truck will not turn off

Just do it right and replace the stepper motors. I have the same issue with the dash lights going dark but I plan to actually fix the problem :(. All your video does for me is confirm this is a common GM issue which is why I'm a Ford guy although Ford has their own set of issues.

Hey there... I discovered your other videos and watched this one. Given your other technical videos. I suggest you do a search for GM stepper motors. You can remove your instrument cluster, desolder the stepper motors that drive your needles and replace them. The soldering is "through hole" type components on the circuit board (very basic soldering / desoldering techniques - easy.) There are even LED replacement options for the backlighting issues you have (or will soon have) as the incandescent lamps burn out in your cluster. Good luck and thanks for your videos.

I swapped my radio out on my 05 Silverado and when I turned it back on the airbag light came on. Any guesses? I’ve been trying to find a wire that I maybe bumped or something but it’s driving me crazy.

Climate control module. Next will be your blower motor control module, next will be your 4wd switch. And bro it shouldn't be in auto 4wd unless you're in the snow, it should be in 2 High.

I took out my dash and tighten the power plug in the back with a zip tie and fortunately it solved my issue.

Or I could fix your blower problem and your cluster problem for 250

My truck has the same issues with the gages not working (speedometer is stuck on 120 mph). Did you fix the dash or just replace it?

Jeff Cortix will fix it

Wow not helpful at all, why dont you just fix your gauge cluster. Usually the stepper motors go out. You can send the cluster to a professional.

i can go without speedometer...my phone gps is more accurate anyways

Why dont you just fix it right istead paying for all these getto fixes? The gauges quick working because the instruments cluster is bad. Go to the junk yard and get one cheap. Your blower motor doesnt blow on 1, 2, and 3 because the blower motor resistor needs replaced. The lights flicker because there is a short inside the switch you were turning. Its not in the wires, you need a new switch. All those parts can be bought cheap. Buy the resistor and switch new. Buy the cluster at a junk yard. You could keep the total under 100

This sucks
