    Installed new amp, humming noise

    Column shift wire to gauge cluster routing

    Either I am horrible with my search or maybe this has not been discussed. I have a 1993 K1500 Silverado, working on new dash and interior right now. Originally the gear indicator in the gauge cluster seemed dead, always showing in park. I figured something was broken and it would be a tough...
