What causes a bad gauge cluster in a Chevy Silverado?
Individual gauge problems are almost universally caused by failing gauge motors. Each gauge is controlled by one gauge motor called a stepper motor. For example, an instrument cluster with 6 analog gauges will have 6 stepper motors.
Why is my speedometer stuck on my GM Silverado?
This section will outline all the most common problems that have been identified. The most common instrument cluster problem seen on the 03-06 GMs is faulty analog gauges. This is usually the first gauge problem the vehicle owner sees and is experienced as a stuck, sticky or jumpy gauge needle.
Why is my transmission temperature not working on my Silverado?
Silverado 2500, 3500 and 1500HD models got a factory transmission temperature gauge from the factory while all other models did not. The transmission temperature gauge suffers from the same tendency to fail as all the other gauges and again will be caused by a failing stepper motor.
