My Chevy has about 65000 miles and back in October my speedo went out. Dead. A month later the oil pressure gauge went, followed by the tach and today went the gas gauge. Sometime in November the radio started to cut out randomly. Usually when it cuts out the right green light on my rearview mirror turns red (the vertical one next to the Onstar buttons). When it cuts out the little red blinking security light comes on. If i turn the truck off and then turn the key to run it will come back on for a second and cut off again. Also randomly the lights in the power locks and windows go out, and they stop working. I only notice it at night when the lights are visible. Now that the gas gauge has gone out, if it wasnt for the Distance to Empty button on my steering wheel I'd be screwed. Anybody have ideas?

Replying to: attindall (May 05, 2009 7:55 pm) I have also had the radio cut out normally on my '03. The first time the dealer put in some kind of software update. It has happened 1 or 2x since then and just seems to correct itself. The other problems may be related to your gauge cluster, get that fixed first and before it is not covered. |

The a/c, heater electronic display flashes on and off and I have no control of the temperature. The display unit has been replaced once, with the same symptoms. The condensor coil was replaced and the system re-charged when the problem started. I understand the display had to be removed in order to have access underneath the dash. Any ideas on to how to repair this would be greatly appreciated by both me and my mechanic!! Thanks, Kenneth
