My Dash Died

[daveor]

2010 GMC Sierra SLT 4x4 5.3 Started the truck up today in town,, first noticed the e brake light was on,, then got to looking,, nothing was working,, no speedo, tach, outside temp, or odometer. The oil pressure and the other gauges like that work though,, Will take it in first thing in the morning,, It showed 5007 miles on it when I left the dealer today, drove over 25 miles and it still shows the same,, thinking one of the computers died,, under warrenty so will take it and get it fixed,, DAve

Bummer, thank goodness for the warranty.

Most likely they will have to install a new instrument cluster. Keep us updated!

Is there a fuse for the dash? Perhaps a blown fuse? If so, finding out why will be the question.

No odometer? drive it for a year then take it in! JK. Thats strange, x2 on the warranty!

took it to the dealer this morning,, when I started it up to drive it there,, every thing worked fine,, they checked and there were no codes set. They don't know what it could be,, They told me to just drive it and if it does it again, try to get it there while it is doing it,, The truck ran fine, just no dash, I did use my gps to check my speed though,, don't want any speeding tickets too..

I think the dash runs on the CAN bus with pretty much every other electronics on the truck. Could have been a weird glitch where it stopped talking to the dash. "Rebooting" the truck fixed it (I have had weird issues with the radio like that).

I think they might have disconnected the battery this morning as all the settings on my radio and clock were wrong, will wait and see if it happens again. DAve
