digital or analog display? handle came off the shaft?
make sure you don't have electric transmission shifter, as then you could have seperate TSS - transmission speed sensors.

Your stepper motor in the head assembly is going bad. Common problem. Check with your dealer, there is sort of a recall/reembursment in place for this.

took it to the dealership today annd they said that it was the instrament cluster. they are saying around $650 parts and labor, or 450 for just the part but it will still have to be programed. and of course that( GMTECH 2)is suposedly a GM tool only . said that they would have to talk to there rep. and see if they would do anything to help on it or not but since I bought it used that they probably wouldnt do anything. so know im trying to find somewhere that it calls for a recall on it because wheather its one owner or 2nd owner they should have to replace it .
