The dealer doesn't have a clue either . I called one dealer and explained the problem and they had no idea,
then took it to another and they couldn't find anything because it wasn't doing it when they checked it. I also tried justanswer.com and a GM tech said do a voltage drop at ign switch harness, thats when I replaced the ign switch. another GM tech said maybe its the passlock because they usually replace passlock when they replace the ign switch. I totally w/ older truck, my first truck was a '62 p/u I got in '81

or pull the cluster out and unplug everything, then plug it all back in and see what it does.
