Im new to this site and have no clue what to do lol. I do have a question about my dash lights tho. Any help?
11-26-2014
whats the problem?
11-26-2014
one side of my dash lights doesn't work if it does it is so dim I cant see it. tried bulbs and fuses and still nothing

try cleaning the contacts where the bulbs meet the cluster. they maybe dirty. thats if you got push in and turn bulbs. not 100% whats in gp cluster.

ok thanx. yea its the ones that set in and then turn. im afraid its a short somewhere. when it first happened all the lights would come on when you first start the car then about 5 minutes later the ones side would dim out almost all the way. now it doesn't work at all on the one side

sometimes the metal ribbon the bulbs sit in gets a spot worn through or burnt, ive seen a vid of some paint on repair stuff. you'll need a test light and follow the ribbon till the test light stops working, then you know you found the area thats bad.

Are you having any other electrical issues besides the dash by any chance??
11-27-2014
No not really. I have been having issues with ABS/TCS but I took it to a gm shop and I had wiring harnesses replaced and it worked for the most part lol. the light still comes on sometimes then goes off they say I need an electronic brake control module. as far as the dash lights I have no clue what it could be

sounds like a bad hub for the abs light. jack the car up, lugs still tight and see if you can feel play in the wheel.
11-27-2014
it does feel a lot better since they replaced that hub tho.
11-27-2014
yea they actually just replaced the driver side hub. they said it was worn and had a lot of play in it. I replaced the left rear hub a couple summers ago. soon I will have all 4 hubs new lol

sadly that cycle never seems to end with these cars. hubs are always failing. make sure your shop is using hubs with a 3 year warranty.Originally Posted by 2000superchargedgrandprix
