#1 of 15 Cavelier Speedometer Issue by lexirpotter Nov 05, 2007 (11:51 am)
I have a 2002 cavelier that has a major speedometer issue. It will stay at 60mph or above. Anyone have an idea what could be causing this? We have changed out the transmission sensor and this did not fix the issue. Replies to this message: gonogo (Nov 06, 2007 8:23 am)

#3 of 15 Fuel, Temp, RPM gauges. by sonicburger Jan 04, 2008 (3:29 pm)
I have a 04 2.2L 5-Speed Cavalier. I was wondering what is the cause of the Fuel,Temp, and Rpm needles get stuck or don't work.The car is under warranty. I would like to know before I i take it up there and they say something else is wrong with my car. Thank you.

Replying to: sonicburger (Jan 04, 2008 3:29 pm) need a new cluster. go to your dealer. i am assuming you have extended warranty being you have an 04 so you may have a small deductible.   also could be..fuel level sensor, thermostat, speed sensors and a couple of other things, but being it;s all of them acting up i would say it's something to do with the cluster itself. but, i have not seen where one has been brought into my shop with all gauges acting up. usually the speedo is inop.   the only way to truly know is if you bring it into the dealer. it's under warranty so why not bring it in?

Replying to: wheresmyvette (Jan 16, 2008 8:28 pm) my speedo is sticking above 60 then as i speed up it also does and they only way to reset it is to bump the starter and it will eventually reset i do not believe it needs a new cluster because there are no other problems with the cluster so i am setting out to find either a bad vaccum or defective cable because it acts like a vaccum pls post any finding you all have and i will do the same thanks in advance David

Replying to: jgb2 (Feb 06, 2008 3:04 pm) I had a 94 Cavalier sticking above 55 after it ran an hour or so, under warranty a new cluster was installed. The cluster is all electric.
#8 of 15 2004 Cavalier Fuel, RPM reading wrong sometimes by bcar03 Feb 14, 2008 (8:03 am)
2004 Cavalier Fuel and RPM problem, sometimes these gauges have the correct reading. Sometimes I start this car and fuel and RPM gauges are crazy, all the way over (extreme right). How can I fix this problem??? Any help appreciated!!!

Replying to: jgb2 (Feb 06, 2008 3:04 pm) I had this same problem with my 2003 Cavalier. I removed the negative battery terminal because I had to mess with the horn switch behind the air bag and then when I went to re-connect it, all my gauges stopped working and a bunch of lights came one. I took it to the dealer and they said I needed a new instrument cluster. It was too expensive so I did not get it fixed yet. Any ideas how this happens and how to fix it without replacing the instrument cluster?

Replying to: ping1445 (Mar 07, 2008 9:59 pm) Try this, pull the cluster fuse for a few seconds. Replies to this message: ping1445 (Mar 08, 2008 11:26 am) ping1445 (Mar 08, 2008 11:35 am) bcar03 (Mar 09, 2008 3:35 am)
