1/2 Ton Chevy Cluster Swap (Trans Temp Gauge)

[@michaelsweeney4898]

Can you share who did this rebuild?

[@santibanez994]

I have a 2000 Silverado but I’m wanting to add this gauge cluster to mine, you think if I get the one that works with controls steering wheel and the cluster would it work on my 2000? Like fuel range and stuff like that?

[@mjmcomputers]

No it won’t, you need a 2000-2002 cluster. 2003+ won’t work.

[@santibanez994]

MJM’s Workshop I heard it would work just gotta reprogram my bcm and the cluster but it cost some money

[@alandicaprio6024]

Does the transmission gauge just automatically start to work in other words when you put the cluster in the ecm tells the gauge the temp?

[@mjmcomputers]

Yes

How to fix the park shifter my shifter I have to pull it and push it back to make it illuminate the park

[@mjmcomputers]

Sounds like the neutral safety switch is out of adjustment.

i have a 2001 gmc sierra i guess u can say its identical to the 01 silverado an im want to add a 02 cluster that has the trans temp its off an escalade condering it s basiclly the same thing it should worl right

[@mjmcomputers]

I did the swap on my 2000 GMC, but haven’t tried a Escalade cluster but I’ve heard of it being done before. Here’s where I did my 2000 gmc. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pWOrk6Gpp7d7fNk

Does this work on a 2004 tahoe ? Ive ben wanting to do this but see no research on them until i saw this video

[@mjmcomputers]

Yes it should.

[@davidangel4858]

Thanks ! 👍🏻

[@ocegueda19921951]

Can i just add the trans temp gauge to my cluster ? Or do i need to reprogram the cluster once ive dropped the gauge in? My silverado did NOT come with a trans temp gauge from factory.

[@mjmcomputers]

Cluster has to be programmed for it. Easier to find a cluster with a trans temp gauge already in it.

[@moejr14]

Can I just add a stepper motor in the trans temp spot and gauge overlay to my existing cluster that has trans temp? Or do I need to program the cluster

[@mjmcomputers]

Cluster needs to be programmed.

[@HJSenior]

So it just plug & play?

[@mjmcomputers]

Yes, just make sure you get one compatible with your year and that has or doesn’t have Steering controls. Based on what you have. Then just need to get mileage programmed.

[@joeseymour5014]

Could I use a cluster out of a Escalade around same year ? So I have a 03 avalanche would I be able to use 03 to 06 Escalade cluster ?

[@MinecraftRanger56]

So you literally just plug it in and the trans temperature gauge just started working? And you didn’t have to install anything else?

[@mjmcomputers]

Yes, I’ve done a 2000 and a 2003 and both worked. Just make sure to get one from same year range.

[@8__D]

@@mjmcomputers So what your saying is there is already a transmission temperature sensor that is already wired and ready to be plugged into the cluster?

[@mjmcomputers]

@@8__D yes the ecm already monitors trans temp. Most odb2 readers can read the trans temp from the ecm.

[@8__D]

@@mjmcomputers damn that’s sick, kinda wanna get a 2500 cluster and put it in my 1500
