My oil gage is the only one that doesn't work. How can I get this fixed
@@rosaurarodriguez9654 if you have an 07, to fix the oil gauge you need to replace the engine.
Nicely done I now know I don't want to try this fix! You are the man for trying four time and how you isolated the mosfet was brilliant I really like watching someone work that is good at what they do. You are good at what you do keep the great work
Thank you so much Jeff. I had to lift mine off circuit board like this one. Thought for sure I was going to do it wrong but it worked.
Glad you got it working!
Thanks Jeff great videos can you do one explaining how to calibrate?
Oh, I forgot to add it only took me about 15 minutes to get out of my truck and all part, after watching and listening to you, so I thought finding the bad resistor, or diode shouldn't be too hard, but I was totally wrong!!
Not sure how I stumbled onto your video although I don't need this repair I could listen to your music for hours. lol I'm was born & raised in Chicago so I love the Blues. Austin Tx is the only thing that compares.
weirdoonaharley
I can't take any credit for the music. CZcams offers a list of free music that can be added to the videos while editing.
Nice work. Great bactrack!!
Hi, nice job you did there, very smart ! So me 2 have one problem and I think it is related with the cluster. I own a mazda 2 petrol 2007 semi-auto. Every time I put the ignition ,the cluster shows normal and after I start the engine, 10 sec normal and then, the gear display dies with the count-tours and the anti-theft goes intermitent. The DTC is: Lost comunication with the IC. At the beginning I suspected a false contact in the can network-cheked, after that a power problem, but not all led's goes off on the cluster, so ... With the engine on, when I engage Hi beam, the cluster reborn and dies again with the lights off. Can you think of something ???
Thanx

I'm sorry I'm not very familiar with that cluster. Only advice I can add is standard electric trouble shooting. Start with looking for fractured solder joints.
Hi question on your 2007 GM cluster fix display repair video you replaced the 8 pin driver IC. What is the part number and where do purchase ? Thanks
NuWavUSA
I was able to pull enough information from the part number printed on the chip and order it from either mouser, Newark or Digi-Key. I don't remember exactly it's been a while.
Wow, nice work, my suburban 2008 oil gauge stop working, just changed my oil pressure sensor, but the gauge is on zero, fuses good, was thinking on buying a new panel, but my be fixable with what you showed on your video, any tips before I finish messing it up and buy the new panel? Thanks for the video.
Plug in a scan tool and read the sensor. Also run a gauge test sweep before you buy a new cluster and have it programmed.
I have an 07 Tahoe and the entire cluster works minus the 2 led screens at the bottom. Do you know how I can fix that?
Thanks!
I have a few video's showing how to do just that. In fact the video your commenting on right now is.
How much do you charge to properly calibrate a cluster?
Do you know how to change the led bulb colors on this body style cluster? If possible maybe make a video on that? I havnt came across ola video on how to do it, i just seen it already done and Installed
Yes. I already have at least 2 video's going over LED install in the 07-14 style. Just check out my channel.
What if the mosfit isn't damage what esle could cause the dim lights and information buttons to not work?
I have a 08 Silverado gauge cluster powers up but all gauges only move to the first line . Like there getting power but no signal after. Do you happen to have a diagram or picture of what it is. Thank you
I'd start by plugging in a scan tool to see if your having communication issues.
what type of mosfet you use
any chance you have a video on how to replace a stepper motor? 08 avalanche. thanks in advance
J Cortes
No, I don't have a video of that. Well because that style doesn’t go bad under normal circumstances.
Have you hooked up a scan tool and run a gauge sweep to confirm you don't have a sending unit or other issue?
Thanks for the video. I was able to do this repair to my 07 tahoe thanks to this video.
Good to hear!
First I would like to thank you sincerely for all of your videos. You are the man!
Second, I would like to ask why you don't have a video on changing the odometer display in the driver information center from Miles to KM, or KM to miles.
I have a 2008 and I am trying to do this.
I was hoping to use my Tech 2, or my OBDstarx100 that I bought after watching your videos, but I can't figure out how to do it.
Thank you for any light you can shed on this issue.
If there isn't a setting in the menu display options, this would be a VIN specific programming, part of the microprocessor firmware, not a eeprom selection.
@@jeffescortlx Thank you for the quick reply.
So this isn't something that you know how to do?
@@JuggaloCujo bestpixle to the rescue
What is the replacement Mosfet chip that you used in this video?
Aaron Dodds
my other video shows the chip close up
I congratulate you for such an amazing video, I would like to ask you something, could you tell me in that silverado cluster what are the parts that emit sound when giving a notification? Please and thank you very much. Sorry if I do not write English well, I'm using Google translate.
Jeffry Briones
the sound isn't coming from the cluster, pretty sure they use the radio for the "dinning" sound.
jeffescortlx Exactly, I thought, I have a trailblazer ltz with a cluster similar to silverado, I changed the stereo and the sound notifications stopped working. I am fond of electronic things and I thank you for getting me out of my doubt. Excellent video! You are very professional in your work, continue like this
Jeffry Briones
I think you can find 3rd party aftermarket modules that can be added to restore the sounds. But I don't think there is anything you can do to restore radio reset of tire monitor, oil and key fod settings through the radio.
hey man I got a quick question minus the same thing wrong with it if I buy one from the junkyard same make and model can I just put it in the vehicle without doing no programming or anything I was thinking that's the cheaper route an easier route? Please get back to me
Well a junk yard cluster will "work" but the odometer will show the miles of the vehicle it came out of, instead of your vehicles true miles. And the 07+ GM's are very picky about the options, so if the braking, suspension and option are not a match, your message center will be screaming warnings and errors at you.
Just get your original cluster repaired. A junk yard cluster could just fail in the same way soon to.
Are you still offering this service? My 07 tahoe DIC is out and I've gotten old and lazy fixing stuff like this and wouldn't mind sending it to you, thanks!
Yes I am. But currently backed up with repairs for the next week.
Hey man, quick question what pins are you using on the harness to power the cluster? Also on your power supply do you have it set to 12v and 10amps?
I don't remember the pins off memory, but I'm pretty sure I found a wiring diagram off a Google search. This cluster draws less than one amp, anymore than that you got problems.
jeffescortlx okay thanks theres 3 positive wires and 2 ground wires right?
07 tahoe.. does the same thing with the display so I took it all apart and there seems to be nothing wrong with it nothing burnt no holes but still no display. I used to bang it on the side and it would come on but after a wile the banging stopped working.. what do u recommend or what should I do.. repair or new one
Jadiel 254
Have it repaired. Replacement with programming can get expensive.
jeffescortlx do u happen to stay in texas?? Or where could I get it repaired
Jadiel 254
Sorry I'm in Minnesota.
Very nice helpful video.
Bro can you tell me which one wire you connected man power .
I cant remember from memory, but Google should have the wiring diagrams available, that's where I found mine.
Do you have line for diagram.?
I have a 2009 Yukon cluster that work intermittently. Usually doesnt work when it has sat overnight in the cold. Once the vehicle is warmed up and the key is recycled it all works. If interested in quoting, let me know.
Daniel Deras send an email to 1mr.repairman at Gmail to work out the details.
Wow, you earned that one...
Hey Jeff I have the same type cluster. The LEDS/ backlights work but nothing else . The motors are dead and no displays. The large 3 leg regulator in the middle of the board has no voltage feeding it . Have you ever seen this issue ?
Thanks for taking the time to make these videos. You are very good and informative.
Typically the power will pass through a diode before the input of the regulator, check that out.
Yes I understand. All diodes check good and the 12 volt leg ( facing the bd) top right leg gets it feed from another transistor on the far right of the bd. Know clue where that transistor gets its feed or what switches it. Looks like this one is scrap. Just wandering if you'd ever seen this issue ? First time I've seen this . Ty sir
Put the board in the freezer, the see if it will boot up. If not warm cpu with hot air and check again. The cpu typically switces the voltage regulators on older versions.
are the miles stored in the cluster or can i go to the junk yard and get another speedometer without it changing and screwing up my miles?
J Cabral
for this cluster and other GM's the mileage is stored in the cluster. If you install a junk yard cluster, it will show the miles of the junk yard vehicle.
i pulled from customers 04 silverado had the c5s on ut befire i started i checked power supply at harness as well as battery needles felt choppy so i put power to board to check light most were out so i put x27 replacements new bulbs and hit every resistor with some 60/40 also reflowed harness pins on either side to ensure power flow from harness when plugged in so back lights all work engine light is constant no gauges nor prndl nor odometer their both still black so both should be good prom chip is secured regulators appear to be good and capacitor is still in good shape u have 3 units now like this and its my head off the wall now if you follow what i mean seen your vids and i know and follow your experience as well at this point im at stand still with those or find wrecker units to transfer to these customers of mine rebuild those etc but will end up stocking these boards until i can get answer to this problem
Ohms auto
I can take a look if you want to send them over. I've been suspecting open via's on 05's.
Send me a private message if you want my address.
I have an 09 Silverado that all the background lights work but the entire set of gauges goes out all at once or never comes on. When it does work the information center reads service trailer break system. Please help.
You might actually have a problem with the braking system, you'll need to see a mechanic about that. Send me a private message or give me your email about repairing the cluster.
Thanks a lot. Please make video on how to calibrate clusters after repair.
I will cover this in one of my future videos. Meanwhile you can get by with tape&sharpie if your not able to bench test.
I would like to disable the warning of ( your vehicle over speed ) tahoe 2012. Can you help me how to disable it so i can see my odometer display details like trans temp and others while driving high speed ??
You would have to find someone that has the ability to modify the software and reflash the cluster microprocessor.
How much would you charge to change the LEDs all to white and change the needles and make them blue ? And aftermarket ?
Hello. For quotes I can be reached through email available at the top pinned comment.
So how do you calibrate the IP after the fix? The RPM/Gas/Speedo is all wrong -
Please help and thanks!!
To get it factory perfect power it up with so serial data bus input and seat the needles at the start position.
Great work sir and well done .🏅🏅🏅🏅🏅👍
what do you use to re calibrate the cluster??????
12 volts and a good ground...
non the less if im seeing more of these im sure everyone else will as well
hi I wanted to know how much to fix my cluster 07 yukon

Can you change delights in owes the make them blue
Yes it's possible
HI MY FRIEAND I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WHERE YOU BUY PARTS PLEASE THANKS.
Jonathan Gutierres
any of your favorite electronic parts suppliers, doesn't matter.
Jeff, what happens to cause the Mosfet, 100 om resistor, and driver to burn up? I have watched many similar videos without encountering the answer to this question. Can you enlighten me? Is there anything that can be done to prevent it?
I'm just guessing, but the engineers might have underspeced the the MOSFET when they selected it. The resistor and chip failing is caused buy a shorted mosfet pulling too much current and putting power in places it doesn't belong. I've been soldering a heat sink lead to the heat sink tab to give it more thermal mass to dissipate heat from.
I noticed you soldering a ring on there, but didn't catch what t was for; Good idea! Thank you for your answer. How do I arrange to send my unit to you for repair (if I can get it out) 2007 TAHOE LT
If you leave me your email I can send over contact information.

Ty I'll give it a shot
How much would it cost to have you rebuild an unmolested 95 Tahoe cluster?
Sorry I'm only setup for the electronic style odometer clusters.
4:17. Droppin' names! Awesome.
I have the same problem with the cluster on my 07 avalanche. Would you fix it for me, and how much? Thanx
I charge $100 plus return shipping for the 07 display repair.
@@jeffescortlx How long would it take? I'm in Howard Beach, NY. Where are you located?
@@jorgecabra7918 my email is available under my channel "about" tab.
i undstand that i put in all upgrades motors an oem bulbs reflowe all the typical resistors etc yet same result ive done hundreds of these an this one seems to be the odd ball yet i had 2 other customers will same issues as well im leaning towards the microprocessor but not sure on how to really test it
Ohms auto
is it really a 04 board or possibly a 05 board?
jeffescortlx quick question what chip are you using and where did you get it? the replacement part? Thanks
What would cause the DIC to not turn on but the PRNDL works normally?
Not sure, I haven't run into that one yet.
jeffescortlx ok, thanks
I have a Tahoe with the same problem? What should I do? I know for sure i wouldn't be able to do all this process
Homar Garcia
I would recommend to find an electronic technician with experience at component level repair.
Otherwise at a higher cost you could exchange it at the dealership. Not all dealerships are equipped with both the equipment and experienced auto tech to program the new cluster, so ask questions.
jeffescortlx thank you so much
I have the same cluster, the left side display is completely out, but the right side is partially lit, could this just be the mosfet?
Yes
jeffescortlx thank you
Your welcome.
Hi Jeff my cluster on my 2011 yukon goes in and out. Mostly out .CAN you fix this??
It quits when it's cold but sometimes works when it's warmer?
The weather doesn't make a difference. The gauges Just works sometimes.
Sometimes this kind of problem can be hard to troubleshoot if I can't reproduce the issue on the bench. I'll take a look if you want to send it in. Send me a private message through CZcams or give me your email for details.
i sent my email to you.
Hey! Is there how much do you charge for fixing the same problem on my 07 chevy suburban ?
gabriel rubio
$100 one business day turn around. If your interested send me a private message and I can send you more information.
Your cluster is ready! Contact me so I can ship it back out to you.
Hey! @@jeffescortlx My display is not working again, do you wish for me to contact you through your email to work something out?

Who can fix this in the Memphis Tn area?
Dear jeffescortlx
what is the power of the resistor?
I don't remember the wattage. It's low current coming through the gate. Just match package size and you'll be ok.
Thanks for quick replay :) .
From where you purchase it? if you have the link you can given to me please
If you blew and opened the 100 ohm then your driver chip is also going to be damaged. I would recommend to send it to someone that is experienced with component level repair.
Best background music on all these cluster videos.
I got so tired of the music :\ i wasn't even able to ear him properly. Also same music for 30 minutes.
Can anyone tell me the part number to the check engine light led mine on mine 08 silverado is burt out and i want to order a replacement before I tear it apart to replace it
I believe it's a 3528 orange. But its not normal for them to burn out naturally on their own. Did you buy the truck used? Previous owner may have "disabled" it. Maybe with a piece of tape, or maybe with a chisel.
jeffescortlx yes I bought the truck used and havnt pulled the cluster out yet. Thank you very much for the input. I will check for the cover up.
If you see finger prints all over the face you'll know what's up.
jeffescortlx thank you very much sir
Still repairing these clusters ? Have a 07 Tahoe
Yes. You can send me your email or private message through CZcams for my contact info.
jeffescortlx hi can you send me repair info? 2007 chevy to send you
I cant send you a PM since your youtube channel isn't fully set up.
Would you know why that my cluster lights flicker and my 2007 Avalanche
Backlight or warning lights or both? If backlights it's possible you have a defective LED.
Just the backlighting
If the rest if the dashboard is fine my guess is defective LED.
Okay didn't start doing it until I change my whole dash out and I had to take the cluster out the Dash cover
07 tahoe i have. led lights won't light up.circuit board problem?
What about the rest of the dashboard, radio and HVAC light up?
its my wifes tahoe.and just found out then hvac lights dont light up.aftermarket radio.every thing else works on the cluster
Did they work before the radio was installed?
what is the part number for the chip?
I don't remember off the top of my head the part number, but there are several other videos on CZcams that go over this repair that list the part number.

Gordo Diaz
I typically charge 100 plus return shipping.
This includes driver chip, gate resistor, mosfet, foil repair when needed and proper electronic calibration. Covers the worst case scenario. There are people on ebay that will do it for less. But I can't speak for them if they can handle the bad ones.

I want to know what to do since I can't afford to buy a new cluster
Jeanetie Trevino
What model and year vehicle do you have?
jeffescortlx 2007 tahoe while I was exiting the highway I heard a sound like something broke and I stopped and turned off the truck and nothing was different from the bottom I turned it back on and the gas marked empty after being full before the noise iam so stressed cuz my dashboard is all cracked and if I change the cluster I will have to buy a new dashboard also
Jeanetie Trevino
So did you run something over? You might have just damaged the sending unit or wiring for the sending unit. Take the vehicle to someone with the proper scan tool to check the sending unit signal. Otherwise you might be throwing money at things that aren't broken.
jeffescortlx it could be just I little plastic on the road thank you very much for the advice I will totally do that before buying expensive parts

nice video but for 35 bucks i can buy one from the junk yard.
Yes, but it will show the odometer value of the vehicle it came out of, not going into. This could have a big impact on any insurance payouts or trade in/sale values.
