Lost Instrument panel!
Today our corvette club went on a road trip ! After we ate and started back ALL instrument panel gauges would not work! I turned the engine off and restarted the car but gauges would not work. We drove several miles and stopped at a produce stand and after re-starting the engine, all gauges worked again! It was very hot today which I thought might have an effect but this malfunction did not happen to any other vette. This vette is a 2003. Any ideas?

This happened to me several times last year. I removed the dash to see if all wires were plugs properly and everythings looked fine. I replaced the alternator regulator and did not fix the issue. I did Bill Curley's ignition switch repair and nothing either.
This spring I looked at the acordeon wires in the driver's door and did not notice anything wrong. Though the gauges never went down since. I start to believe there was something wrong going on in those wires...
If it happens again, I would give it a try.

I was about to post a thread and saw this! I AM IN THE SAME BOAT 
The one thing that works (believe it or not) is slamming your fist right above the gauge cluster....it resets itself...
BUT.....now after doing that for 2 weeks....the language has changed to computer code!!!
SOOO,,,,I'll be needing Bill Curlee or someone else on this forum with some know-how to help!
