what year? I believe some (04s and 05s as well as others) have issues with the little electric motors failing inside the cluster. (My escalade cluster has issues with the speedo and the oil pressure)

as long as you have under 70k on the clock take it to any gm dealer and they replace the cluster for free or fix it...whatever it takes they told me.

Cluster failures are very common in 03's

My 04 has been doing it for about 6 months after i got the truck. Last I heard GM had a recall on the clusters. I took it to my dealership and because I have the Regency RST they have to send my truck away for about a week and i dont want to be without my baby that long so ive just been dealing with it
