driving home i noticed a light grinding sound..like if something was dragging or something. i get home then i get to start my truck and speedo goes to 100 and its stuck there..keep hearing a light grinding noise when i drive..kinda like bad brakes but mine are fine..any idea what it could be..i don't see anything hanging out under the truck.

Very hard to offer any meaningful help or advice without detailed vehicle info.

there is an extended warranty policy from the dealer for this concern...believe it will go back 10years. Talk to your dealer, they will probably replace and reprogram the entire cluster...FREE!!

well tonight a good thing happen..i was driving to pick up my wife and i heard a click and the speedo gauge bounced around and went to where it should be..so i'm guessing when i was messing with the bad the other day it just got stuck..my lady said when i would unhook the batt and hook it back up all gauges would jump around..so i guess thats the problem and i also noticed the grinding noise is gone...so i dunno..just glad its gone :D
