Hello,

I have a 04 Silverado with 47k miles on it that has a speedometer that stops working intermitly. I am the orginal owner and this problem has come and gone many times. I work alot and have little time to work on my truck so I was just waiting for the speedo to break and stay broken before I would fix it or have it fixed.

Anyway has anyone else had a trouble like this before?

Thanks,

the problem is internal in the cluster i recomend that you upgrage to a escalade cluster

 

i have the EXACT same problem! My works the majority of the time..but early in the mornin..or while pulling a trailer..the speedo..will go a lil haywire.

care to expand Slammed on the cluster? That's german to me! sorry.

 

I have a 2003 2500 with the same issue, found a speedometer shop in tacoma washington that can repair this for half of what the dealerships want. Took them about 2 hours to repair the problem when I took my truck in. They also repair the digital displays in the older chev trucks that go blank. Just thought you would want some more info.

 

just made a post in another thread about this...*new member*...mine does the same thing...did you notice if it started doin this when the weather got colder??

 

Here is some info on this issue. I have the same problem and checked further into it. This really sums up what I found to be true. I will probably order a different type for mine and get a new look.

There is a recall on the 2004 Silverado insturment cluster. I received my letter this week and promptly mailed the receipt from my replacement cluster to GM. Hopefully I will have $323 back by Christmas.

 

I have the same problem, but in my case the only thingthat works is the temp. My oil pressure goes crazy and so does my battery gauge. I havent had all the gauges working properly for about a year now. The dealer wanted 400 to fix it so that s when I decided i could live with it. I didnt even know there was a recall for the cluster until i read this thread.

 

I received the same letter earlier this week too. I have an '04 and havn't had any problems...YET. They say they will cover it for upto 7 years or 70k miles.

 

GM takes there sweet *** time to mail out recall ****. Didn't know about the parking break recall till my truck was on my leg. And to all those who didn't know about it 99-04 silverado's have an issue with the parking break breaking or failing.
