Speedometer Needle Stuck

[FGHT ON]

So I'm driving home today stuck in traffic and look down and the RPM Needle and Speedometer stoped working-RPM is stuck at 2 and Speedometer is stuck at about 70 (the speedometer would go past 70 but not below). All the other gauges work just fine and the computer/Odometer is still working correctly. Any one have this problem or know how to fix it? Could it be something to do with the HYPERTECH programer? No problems at all until today . . . Please help!

THis used to be very common in teh 03/04's. You'll want this to be a warranty deal...becasue they replace the entire cluster of guages. They'll send your speedo cluster out and let your truck sit until yuo get your back. Demand a NDA exchange so at least it won;t take two weeks like one of mine did.

Take your programmer off too....jsut so they cannot say that's what caused it.

What is NDA? And what if my warranty ran out in Jan?

There is a special policy adjustment for this issue, take it to a Chev/GMC dealer and it should be covered under warranty, Hummer dealers I can't speak for. They can pre-order a cluster after they take a tech2 scan for the cluster ID number and hours/mileage. Once it comes in, make an appointment to have it installed.

special policy doesn't cover H2 speedos. Got extended warranty???

Thanks guys, My Hummer dealership service manager is an awesome guy. He did me a favor and got it done for free. It's getting fixed next week.

I disagree, I have personally have had 2 H2's done under GM's Special policy at my dealership. It covers all GMT800 platforms. They (being GM) know they have an issue with clusters from 2001-2006.
