Hallo

My problem is that the gauges on a 2002 TransAm dont work at all.

Drove down the road and out of nowhere the whole cluster went dead. Only my battery gauge and oil pressure gauge works. I have no rpm, speed, water temp, fuel and the small display is dead.

I already check all fuses under the hood and drivers side by the door. All fuses are good. Also checked grounds. All cleaned up. Switched the replays under the hood. Checked the PCM conectors. Nothing. Battery was down for a whole day.

What could be the problem?

It's usually a fuse. Sometimes folks have also had wires melt on aftermarket exhaust, causing things like this.

I dont think its a fuse. I checked all and checked all fuses on the left side of the dash with a multimeter. I have 12v on both sides. My voltmeter and my oil pressure gauge goes of when i pull the fuse for the gauges when the car is running

Could be gauge cluster circuit board. Happened to my brother's WS6. He had to have the cluster pulled and sent out somewhere in the SF Bay Area, but the fix worked. Don't know how you contend with it in Bavaria.

Oh really! Thank you for that info! I will get me a used camaro cluster to see if its the cluster

So my gauge cluster broke!

Now i do have a new problem:
I used a Camaro cluster in a Trans Am. The airbag light came on with the Camaro cluster. Just found out that should be normal.
My question now is can i buy me a used Trans Am cluster and put it in without the airbag light or do i need to fix my old cluster. I heard the BCM conects with the cluster and the BCM turns on the airbag light when a another cluster is in?
Thanks for any help
