A video about repairing 95 - 99 Chevy/GMC OBS Clusters. In this video I show adding Damping fluid to a tired air core motor.

Dude, this video helped me so much. I was going to get gauges repair $350 and new cluster $505 or a used one with a hell of a lot of mile - e.g. 250K miles when mine only had 68K. I tested the gauges and they were fine. In a shimmer of light I noticed under the green coating that a strip had burned out. If you go to 7:13 of your video, look at the lower right bulb. That thin outer strip had a burn break in it. When I tested it with a volt meter around where you right thumb is it read 12v. when I went past the break it read 3.4v I soldered a jumper wire and everything work perfectly now. I would not have attempted a troubleshoot without your excellent lead. My mind was locked into gauges when I have not experience with and I found an electrical problem when I am good at. Thank you!

Nice work Matt! I think all us tech's can unite and agree mechanical odometer clusters are yuky. Most of the time they are misdiagnosed, so time is spent to prove there is nothing wrong (usally truck wiring or bad sensors/ground) and if there is actually a problem in the cluster good parts are difficult to find, as you covered I agree!

@@FixedUntilBroken Depends on your business model. If you have enough electronic cluster work to keep you busy then turning these away makes sense. If you get a bunch of requests then you could charge a high enough bench diagnostic fee and per-hour fee for air core non electronic clusters that it's worthwhile. It's the "I don't want to screw with this." price. No shame in that. I know mechanics that quote some jobs they don't want to mess with that way. If someone pays it then you make enough that it's worthwhile. It all depends on your comfort level and business model.

Detailed Explanation for those Curious If you’re wondering he is using the Super Lube - 100 CST NOT 5000. For those who weren’t aware when he said thin enough it to make it in there that would have been the 1st clue but to make 100% certain I played back the footage of when he dropped the bottle and got a clear picture of which of those two option was “check marked” on the bottle. For application you’re actually going to be pushing the fluid AROUND the spindle so the spindle will go into the syringe and make a seal against the yellow plastic section surrounding it. By pulling back on the plunger you’ll be ideally creating a slight vacuum in the chamber through the slight gaps between the metal spindle and yellow plastic encouraging the thin silicone oil to flow back into. You see him perform this action a couple of times because it’s not perfect but the end goal is to just get SOME amount of fluid down in there. If you are wondering where exactly the oil will be going, check out: Air Core (Gauge) Motor Video by - FixItFRANK He videos an up close tear down of the motor which shows a circular neodymium magnet that is attached to the shaft but sealed in a small cavity in the yellow plastic toward the rear of the motor (FixitFrank vid 9min) It’s just slightly bigger than the magnet with a pin hole on each end for the shaft to stick through. The little holes act to keep the shaft centered and because there is NO form of additional sealing the silicone oil tends to dry out over time. The small amount of free space around the magnet gets filled with the silicone oil to act as the dampening.
@TradeWorks_Construction6 ай бұрын
Hope this follow up helps anyone trying to do this for themselves. If you’re looking for alternative viscosity silicone oils try searching for “ToneArm Silicone Dampening Fluid” they offer varying degrees of viscosity and while having a MUCH HIGHER CST you can simply add a drop to a larger quantity of 100 CST to get a custom viscosity that approaches a similar resistance to spinning as any of the good air core motors from your gauge cluster.

Great video! I have a 96 Tahoe and the temp sensor Will only read exactly halfway between 100° and 210° in my truck is it normal operating temperature. The truck runs perfect it’s just the gauge says the truck runs really really cold. Do you think changing out the oil in that motor will help? Also could you go into slightly greater detail on how to change the oil inside the motor? Another issue and the only other one that I have is the truth all motor. It only rotates A little bit then will stop.How do I fix that?

Also, would light machine oil (shaver oil) be OK in the motors (for my fuel gauge)? Thank you.

The fuel pump on my 1997 Suburban c1500 kept blowing fuses and the pump finally failed. When I changed the fuel-sending unit I found that the wires were melted and fused together. After replacing the sending unit I noticed that the fuel gauge started spinning wildly around and around at high speed and jamming against the oil pressure needle below it. It seems a lot worse than just missing oil. Would this indicate a bad gauge or sending unit? Could the shorted wires in the sending unit have damaged the gauge? How would I tell the difference? I have a multimeter and very limited knowledge of electronics. Thank you for any advice you can offer.

Wow! Thanks for showing this. The replacement gauge is no longer available, "F" series for a 99 Tahoe. Fuel gauge very twitchy, The Pressure gauge after starting goes to nearly 80, but comes down to 65 when normal temp (160) is reached and lower at idle around 20 psi. This is with Mobil 1 syn 5W30. Ever since a rebuilt motor was put in. The old one I use 10w30 and it never got that high, and ran around 45 normal which is what I am used to in a 350 v8. The speed O shows 60 mph for 55mph true with GPS and those road signs that show you speed. Do you think I need a new speed gauge? Or maybe adjust the zero up 5 mph? Anyway thanks again!!

@chuckandwendystein80413 жыл бұрын
I followed your procedure and fuel gauge is still not working correctly. Initially the gauge would go way past the full position to the 3 o'clock position. Also it would oscillate at times. When I first checked motor it was very stiff. After installing dampening fluid it goes slightly below empty then when the engine is started it jitters about 1/4' deflection. What do you suggest at this point. Just to clarify this truck has dual tanks with a transfer pump between the two tanks. I have already replaced the pump and sending unit on the main tank. There appears to be a sending unit of some type on the rear tank. Not sure how this electrical system operates.

Sorry if I never replied or called back but you probably messaged about a vehicle I don't regularly do and I currently don't have the time to make a harness and get pin outs for. Your probably in the pile of 87 other messages I haven't responded to. Sorry if that's caused you any inconveniences but it's not a business... Facebook just doesn't have hobby pages. They used to just call it pages but I know they pass off all pages as some sort of business.

Ever researched the board inside the cluster?
@FixedUntilBroken3 жыл бұрын
Nope. I don't like working on these and don't offer them as a service. I assume you're talking about the sub board under it not the main flex pcb.

Yes the board with the gear indicator. Was curious cause there is NOTHING on it in the factory service manuals. Do you know where I can get a complete set of the aircore motors for a 97 cluster?

Took my truck to a mechanic and none of my features on my cluster work now. Is this just bad luck or did theu probably mess something up?

The upfront description says this is for 95-99 year models but then your first sentence says it about 1999 and up. I have a 1995 Yukon.

I said 99 and older not 99 and up. Sorry if sounded like up though.

My problem is in my 95' c3500 oil pressure gauge. The wire to the sensor was melted from exhaust. so i thought that was the problem. Even after i repaired the wire the gauge stays in the same position as in this video.. i can tell it gets some kind of power to it as when i turn ignition on, it fluctuates but, stays in the same position on or off
