So I've been chasing this around for a long time now. It's been going on for 6 years, but has recently gotten much worse. I'll be driving, and my gauges all drop and every warning chime goes off. Blinkers and lights still work on the outside, but nothing on the inside. The cluster back light is still on, but gauges not working. At first it would only happen in the extreme heat or cold, and only here and there(like every few months), which made me think there's Expansion and contraction, breaking a connection somewhere. Lately it has been happening almost every time I drive, and in any temperature. Most Recently even my head unit will shut off. If it is not reset by the time I get out of my truck the head unit will stay on and drain my battery. With all of the research, I see similar issues, but nothing the exact same. There seems to be a lot of ground issues With these trucks, and I've looked at everything I can find with no luck. My gut says it's a connection issue of some sort, whether ground or not. Any info greatly appreciated. I tried uploading a video of the issue, but it says the file it too large, even after cutting it down to a few seconds

Cluster will work (1/10 times from start up) for about 15 minutes until all gauges drop and other indicator lights come on. Truck was working fine with no issues until a few weeks after my local dealer replaced the fuse junction box. (Check engine light was not showing up when I turned the key so would not pass inspection). Recently had a local shop try and fix it with a used ebay cluster I bought but that cluster didn't work either. After I picked up my truck, the cluster worked fine for 2 weeks no issues then back to acting up like before. Is there something that is shorting or coming loose that I should check? Today leaving work, cluster was working until I hit my high beams and without skipping a beat, gauges dropped. PHOTOS: truck is being driven. Thank you in advance.

Have a 2017 Silverado 2500 Duramax LTZ. Last week the DIC in the instrument cluster didn't go blank (or black), it looked like an LCD that malfunctioned. I looked and it seems there is only one connector for the whole cluster and I don't think reseating it will fix it, but have not yet tried...Also, it will come back every once in a while and work for a bit, then back to the screen below. Anyone have any DIY thoughts on what to do or do I need a new cluster or to repair this one? Also, the truck is most likely out of warranty, via mileage.

The plastic cover over the instrument cluster on my 2016 Silverado High Country cracked in 3 places. I've tried to find a replacement cover online but with no luck. It appears that the only way to replace the cover is to replace the entire instrument cluster, which seems ridiculous. Anyone come across this before? If so, how did you find a find a new plastic cover for the instrument cluster?
