Customer Question

I have a '97 Deville w/ 40K miles. The center portion of the dash lights with the speed, gas gauge, and gears quit. Is this a simple fix like a fuse or do I need a pro?
Thank you

This is almost always a failed instrument cluster. A rebuilt cluster is several hundred dollars, and you'll pay a professional another $200 or so to replace it, as it's a little bit of work to get it out.
