The instrument cluster board has stopped, working and appears to be an ongoing issue with gm on several models (car and truck) between 1998-2009. Also the abs, traction control, service engine lights will not go off. Window doors are not working and appears to all related to the cluster panel. I have replaced all abs sensors, new brakes pads, rotors, and even front bearings. The engine itself works great and is fine and appears that gm has done a great job in this part. The cluster panel and wiring is a serious safety issue and needs to be reviewed in these models. Poor ground wiring an cluster panels can cause consumers to spend thousands of dollars in repairs and still resulting in the same problem. Cluster panel replacement can be from $300 to $800 depending on your local mechanic. This is a serious issue since abs and traction control are not working due to the long list of issues. I recommend a recall on cluster panels for all Cavaliers and modules, wiring as well.

I replaced the battery on my 1996 Chevrolet Cavalier 2. 4l with manual transmission about 3 days ago. Today as I was driving to get gas the vehicle started to idle low as if it was not getting enough fuel to the engine. As I came to a stop it got worse and then I check the dash for any indication of malfunction only to see my airbag, check engine, abs, check oil & battery lights flickering. Moments later as I shift into 3rd gear it dies rendering all safety and normal operation of the vehicle nearly impossible. I had to call a friend to jump me 3 more times before reaching my home which was less than a mile away!.
