[@Jeff_S...]

For anyone here looking for a solution for the infamous "NO BUS" issues these and other Chrysler dashes get. Mine would randomly lose contact with the computer. Truck would run fine, but no gauges and warning lights come on with "NO BUS" in odometer. I fought with this issue for years and finally fixed it. Pull the cluster out, it's easy, pulls out like an old video game cartridge. Use electronic contact cleaner on the metal tabs on the back of the cluster and where they contact in the dash. I had no visible material come off in the cleaning, but it fixed it and hasn't cut out again even once, in three years.

[@gabronjones9886]

Bro, if this works and it doesnt come back in 30 days....im sending you a cashapp for real...cuz nobody nowhere on the web has the answer. And ive tried everything, was your gas mileage poor burning more gas too during the "No bus" episodes? Send me your cashapp, cuz im trying this first this in the am

[@Jeff_S...]

@@gabronjones9886 Nah, it ran fine just no cluster function. I read up forever on how to fix it and that's the one that worked for me. The ECU can also be bad and cause the NO BUS issue as well though. Those are like $250 new and maybe $50 from a junkyard. GL, brother. You don't need to give me nothing.

sweet that was an easy 3min look it up and go do it fix thanks for the vid.... for me i believe unplugging the alternator connection might of caused mine (tach stopped working all the sudden) to stop working. i unplugged the cable to get it out of my way of the changing out the temp sensor and for my socket to get in there and see what i was doing. unplugged of course. no , i didn't bother disconnecting the battery.... shame on me... (99' 5.9L) but that was my scenario. 1 of 3 things coulda did something.

does this work for situations where you have to take the needles off to replace them and make them work correctly instead of being off and not calibrated so that all the gauges are not off?

[@tashacherry1480]

Yeah mines a 2010 dodge journey. Dealership is saying the collision shop fried my cluster but the only thing missing is the millage. It reset.

[@greygoosemafia]

If their is negleclegnce on the shops end... make them pay for it. If not... sounds like it might be just a single wire possibly pinched on the reassembly or burn pcb path. You can solder a new piece of wire from trace to trace

[@elizabethduckwitz9765]

I have a 2002 Dodge Ram Van 1500 (only with about 77,000 miles on it) that will start, but not turn over! Battery good, starter was replaced. Had the PCM replaced and it did not fix problem; hence, I returned it for my credit. When the old PCM was reinstalled, it gave a code that it was not "talking" to the gauge control module (gauge cluster); sent that to another company who said they could fix, but just heard back that they do not fix and are returning it to me. Any suggestions as to where I can send it to be fixed or will your procedure above fix the problem. HELP!!

Hey brother my check gauges light come on and off in my 200 Camero would this fix the problem??

[@seansy59]

99 dakota. Speedometer stopped the other day completely. It would only work once I got over 20mph and now it won't work at all unless the truck is warm. Odo, Tach, and everything else works fine. Tried this test and the speedometer didn't even move. Next warm day I'll attempt to clean the connector harness behind the cluster, as the dash was recently disassembled for a heater core, hopefully just dirty or lose, if that doesn't work then guess I'm going to have to install a whole new one.

[@greygoosemafia]

Do you have an abs light on your dash?

@@greygoosemafia nope. No other lights or errors. OBDII scan is clear also, and speed shows up on scanner.

[@Dennerediirn]

Would this cause the odometer to set itself to the ECU readings? Or does it just go off of what it was originally?

This procedure it just for the gauges. Doesn't effect the mileage. Goes off it was before. I single wire controls the odometer.

[@stevenslouber4947]

If the odometer reading is incorrect after a cluster replacement, will this fix it or do I need one of those odometer correction tools?

[@greygoosemafia]

That's a loaded question there. Depends on what you and what scanners are available vs what the make will let you do with it. Alot of newer clusters communicate directly to your bcm and pcm. Some aren't switchable. Programmable thing... but some something like a 2nd Gen Ram you can just swap. Some have a wire on the back you can roll back others you can't

Check the connections and wires in between. Make sure the sensor isn't clogged with metal shavings in the differential. It's a magic on the other end of the sensor. Check diff fluid. Could be a cluster malfunction

I'm going through the same thing with my 1999 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4 nothing was said but my needle moved yet I was worried it was a wire behind it hopefully that proves its not.

If your gauge doesnt move with the movement of the float valve inside the tank... you have a mechanical problem inside the cluster. You can send them off to get rebuilt at a cost

I’ve already changed the turn signal relay with an led relay. But still have this issue. I’ve looked around and people have said to try and put a load resistor in-line with my headlights and the factory harness so that the truck pulls the normal amount of watts to energize the relay but I can’t find one anywhere and I don’t want to cut the wires seeing as everything works except for the fog lights turn on my high beams.
