#69 of 127 2000 Cavalier & gauge systems by iat0110 Sep 20, 2006 (6:51 am)
Hi, I bought a 2000 Cavalier for my teenage daughter this year. It ran great thus far until Monday morning when she called me at work frantically and stated her car won't start. Needless to say, she missed her school on Monday. Anyway, I helped her to take the battery to the nearest auto shop and had the battery tested out. We brought home a new battery, install it, and the engine starts without a doubt. This morning she realized none of the gauges are working. Anyone know what went wrong?   Thanks in advance,   Iat Replies to this message: gonogo (Sep 20, 2006 8:12 am) iat0110 (Sep 20, 2006 8:31 am) iat0110 (Sep 21, 2006 11:01 am)

Replying to: iat0110 (Sep 20, 2006 6:51 am) A new dash came out in 2000, the panel processor has a glitch, when the battery is disconnected it ceases to function. A fix was installed starting 2001, not backward compatible. Try this, turn the ignition key to run, pull the panel fuse for a few seconds and reinstall, panel should come to life. Fuse panel is located at end of dash, open drivers door to access. Pull fuse marked [CLSTER]. Replies to this message: iat0110 (Sep 20, 2006 8:31 am) iat0110 (Sep 21, 2006 11:01 am)

#73 of 127 ODO and shifter lights by bobble60 Sep 04, 2007 (2:59 pm)
2000 Cavalier 2-dr coupe, I noticed the floor shifter is not illuminated and the digital odometer is not lit at night. Also one or two ares of the instrument cluster seem dark. Any ideas on how to access these lamps? Replies to this message: jamn69 (Sep 06, 2007 6:32 pm) bcar03 (Mar 09, 2008 4:50 am)

Replying to: bobble60 (Sep 04, 2007 2:59 pm) Not exactly sure on the access of that particular year but you need to remove the guage panels noting which hardware goes where for reinstall. The shifter is quite similar with screws possibly mounted on the sides. Make sure voltage is up if new bulbs are not the complete remedy.

Replying to: bobble60 (Sep 04, 2007 2:59 pm) Bulbs are burned out, replace blubs.
#76 of 127 Dash Reset Fails by atvman29 Apr 14, 2008 (6:59 am)
I just bought a 2003 Cavalier Coupe and everything works great but sometimes when the car is turned off, the guages on the dash don't totally reset and go all the way down. The temp and fuel guage in particular. Therefore when I start the car, the fuel guage for example (when the tank is full) goes shooting up from where it got stuck sometimes all the way over to the temp guage area. I know the previous owners just put in a new battery, so could I be experiencing the same issues as the origional poster? Thanks. Replies to this message: cavyman (Jun 22, 2008 6:42 am)
