Hello! I have a 2000 Chevy 1500. Recently the dash lights have started going out when the headlights come on. Everything goes black except the shift selector. If I turn the dome light on they come on. Any ideas?
 
Thanks!
Jennifer

THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO ME, AND I HAD TO REPLACE THE HEADLIGHT/DIMMER SWITCH UNIT AND IT CORRECTED THE PROBLEM.
IT'S BEEN A WHILE SINCE I REPLACED IT, SO I CAN'T REMEMBER
IF I PURCHASED IT FROM FROM THE DEALERSHIP OR ON EBAY,BUT IT WAS BRAND NEW
BUT IT WASN'T THAT MUCH AND IS EASY TO REPLACE.THANKS,CARL

Thanks for your reply Carl......just to be clear, you're talking about the headlight dimmer....the turn signal arm itself....and not the dash light dimmer that is on the dash?
 
My windshield washer motor/pump is not working either. That makes me wonder....since it is on the turn signal arm also. But, I haven't had time to troubleshoot that problem yet so it may just be the pump.
 
Thanks for the help.

Yes and you need to have the odometer reprogrammed with your current mileage or a sticker placed in the doorwell showing date of cluster change and mileage at that time.

You can find a ton of used ones on ebay with some even offering to repair with overnight service. I've tried to check with some of the online GM dealers and it seems they don't offer new replacement clusters. However there are a few aftermarket sources like EverDrive.

IT'S BACK...
Just over a year and a half and the problem raised it's ugly head again with the same exact symptoms.
 
Does anybody know if there is a recall on the instrument cluster unit that controls gauges etc. and what the details are?
