GMT-400 '88-'00 GMT-800 '99-'07 GMT-900 '07-'13 GMT-K2xx '14 to present Both 400 & 800 platforms used the same gauge "layout" in 2000. Its probably the fuel sender, But the diagnostic strategy is different between the 2 platforms. |

Re: gas gauge issues 2000 gmc
if it's the Silverado/Sierra series you most likely have a bad stepper motor in the cluster. The other gauges will fail soon. Replace cluster
