One of my trucks just had the speedometer quit. Cruise and odometer still works. Looked at fuses and did not see any blown. Any Ideas??

Is it under warranty?

If you have your warranty supplement manual you should be able to find that the intrument cluster is covered under the emissions warranty. You will likely have to fight for it though.

Rick,

There have been several posts discussing instrument cluster failures. Ideas? Sorry to say, but my bet is that you probably have a failed cluster.

Here is an interesting thread that should get you started. Of special interest is post #26 from Max Payne. It is a TSB from GM discussing the high failure of the gauge stepper motor.
