Anyone else playing "dash slap"?
Every trip I make in the 89 Cheyenne requires a dash slap, at some point, to reactivate the speedometer. When it kicks off, the speed sensor is effected as well.
Anyone else get to do this?

it will only w9ork for awhile then you will have to remove the cluster and have it rebuilt . my 2001 2500hd hasthe same simtem's but it is to the point to were it will take an acr of congress for the dash instrument's to work .

I find it funny because it isn't at start up, I will be driving and suddenly I hear a change, look down, and no speedo. Then I slap until it comes on again and the rpms kick back down.
All other gauges work as they should. Heck, even my fuel gauge doesn't have the GM curse... weird!

I don't play the dash slap game but I have to do dimmer wheel presses in my 04 Silverado when driving at night. All of a sudden while driving all of my back lighting will slowly fad out or just go from on to off but applying a little pressure on the dimmer wheel brings the lights back up.

the damp weather has definitely played with my issue. in the morning after a damp, rainy night i have to slap the dash often to keep the speedo working. in the afternoon after it has warmed some and dried out, i have no issues.
if it didn't kick the transmission down, i wouldn't care.
