Hi Guys,
I'm new here real nice site. I came here looking for some info and hopefully some help or direction as i'm really struggling with dead gauges and a no bus odometer on my new to me '01 2500 4x4 5 speed. This truck has been rode hard and put up wet way too many times, but the drive train seems to be in decent shape and it'll work good as my farm truck.
What I've done so far is remove and clean the bolted connector several times in the under hood fuse box, I have also removed and cleaned the under dash by the clutch main connector. I have tried to get codes but the only thing retrievable is 900 920 921 when I do a cluster check, all the gauges function when I do a instrument panel check. The idiot lights were all on while the gauges were not working until I cleaned the main harness plug by the clutch. Now I have no idiot lights except the low fuel and check engine. They do come on briefly when I first switch on the ignition key but after the bulb check at startup they go off.
Sorry for the long intro and post but I am stumped.
Thanks, Mike2995
--- Update to the previous post...
A couple other thoughts I had on this problem, the previous owner said someone stole the transfer case out of it while it was parked at his business and it sat for about a year until he got it replaced. Also If there is a way to get the gauges working but still have no bus in the odometer that would be fine with me, I don't care about the mileage but do need the gauges and tack to work.
thanks
