So my cluster readout is starting to scroll through different languages and each time i start the truck it intermittently does this. Sometimes it will work normal other times it just gives me all the different languages it can use but wont let me change or choose. Anyone had this issue before and have an idea for a fix?

most likely cluster needs a rebuild, it's one of the symptoms. local guy fixes them here he went thru one I had like that and cleaned up the board, fixed some burnt lights. problem went away. Thought at first it might be the buttons but replaced all of them and same issue.

There are a few reputable online options as well. Either send in your cluster for repair or order a replacement. On a replacement, Odometer miles can be programmed (due to the programming formula, it won't be "precise"). I requested my mileage to be greater than ***,***, as I didn't want to trigger an Odometer flag (DMV, carfax, etc.) on a truck that is rarely driven. Programming Engine Miles may be a challenge to some, and won't offer it. I would document all readings regardless. On my '02 Tahoe, I was able to drive around without the cluster, verifying speedometer readings with a phone map app, and making sure the gas tank was mostly "full". Most turnaround their clusters within a week.
