Curious as to what it takes to get the gauges to work right. Wanting to do something similar but with a different truck.

the caddy guages are simular to most late model guages, you will need a schematic of the guages to figure out what wires are what. then pick up the signal from the computer terminal. (thats avail from street & perf website) the tricky part is getting the message centre working in the cluster. i used the data wires from my dlc connector. then each time you ground the stearing wheel controll pin it advances to the next message. it takes a little research but wasnt very expensive. thanks bill

Oh ok. I wonder how difficult then, a set of either 06-07 Silverado gauges or 02 Caddy Escalade gauges would be. Truck to truck but obviously some key things may run through the cluster information/computer wise.

if you would go with the basic silverado w/no message center its pretty simple,actually less wires than individual guages. a whole lot of info flows thru the green wire in your data link connector. (class 2 serial data) bill
