Hey davehardman,

Welcome to the Chevy Forums.

Check the fuses.

Hows the big three? The negative and the firewall/engine ground strap could be the culprits.

Also check the ground and wiring to the sending unit from the dash.

There was a problem with the gauges in GM cars from 2003 to 2006. The stepper motors that control the gauges were bad and had to be replaced. This might be your problem.
