Thanks man! You really help me out.
-
There was a recall in several GM cars that use these panels but Trailblazer wasn't among them but the part is the same. Go figure - maybe you can get GM to pony up for the repair but my dealer wanted $550 so I bought the parts for $40 and replaced all the stepper motors.
-
Where did you get the motors from?
-
You are a true hero thanks
-
Did you have to replace all the steppers, if the speedometer is the only one that needs to be fixed? Just asking before I work on mines

Wow, you're using Q-tips to remove solder. I use a small Radio Shack copper braid roll, coated with dry flux paste to remove solder. Interesting!!!!!!! I actually learned something from you today Sir.

Mr. Caston you're the best! The cheapest repair was $189 plus $300 core deposit. My total cost was $30 for motors and $10 for a cheap solder iron set. Amazing instruction! Thank you.

I found that the stepper motors zero out when you first turn the key on so I connected the panel after installing the motors but before installing the needles. Temporarily connect the panel to the vehicle. Then turn the key on (don't start the engine) and let the motors "Zero" and install the needles to zero on the printing and it worked beatifically, Then re-assemble the whole thing. Speedometer track my GPS to within 1/2 MPH!

@dzinity28 happy for you and not too bad of a deal. It is a bother to do all that soldering but....since the gauges have needles???? how do ou know it's "exactly"? Mine and probably yours too were not working so a little bit of error is ,in my opinion, much better than not working at all. You think?

wtf? doesn't look like very good calibration of the gauges. the marks u put on the tape were huge! your speedo is probly off 4 mph!

It works now. Everyone in my household is happy and we saved a ton of money. So what if it's not "properly" calibrated? It's bettter than not working at all.
