2004 Saturn Vue V6. My odometer quit working and sometimes my fuel guage will quit working. If I shut the car off and restart it the fuel guage will work again. No luck with the odometer.

step1 check all fuses
step2 scan the PCM
no car can diagnosed lacking the scan tool.
the TCM shifts,it why would you ignore the errors it stores.
be pain that,
or get the car fixed in a shop.
Speedometer
The instrument panel cluster (IPC) displays the vehicle speed based on the information from the body control module (BCM). The engine control module (ECM) calculates the vehicle speed based on the controller area network (CAN) serial data message indicating the wheel reference speed from the electronic brake control module (EBCM). The ECM sends a CAN serial data message to the BCM indicating the vehicle speed. The BCM sends a class 2 message to the IPC indicating the vehicle speed.
The speedometer defaults to 0 km/h (0 mph) when any of the following occur:
• The EBCM detects a malfunction in the vehicle speed sensor circuit.
• The ECM detects a loss of CAN communications with the EBCM.
• The BCM detects a loss of CAN communications with the ECM.
• The IPC detects a loss of class 2 communications with the BCM.
Having the vehicle scanned for codes would probably point you in a correct diagnostic direction .
Hi:
the dash has seven or eight small bulbs illuminating the entire area, and approx 3 of them are for the speedometer/odometer area.
It seems odd that those are the first to go, but most likely the problem.
It often requires removal of the instrument cluster to swap bulbs. not too bad, but sometimes tricky.
It sounds like the GM Passlock system is activating and shutting the fuel pump off. Are you using the original key or a copy? A copy will likely not start this car, because it lacks the GM Passlock chip.
If you're using an original, try another key if you have one. Otherwise you'll need a tow to the dealership as the Passlock module probably has a fault.
they are full of it, u should show oil pressure as soon as the engine starts, this may be a sticky guage or a sender but that advice they gave u is bull, that is for sure, I am a GM technician.
