Instrument Cluster: 2020 Chevrolet Blazer Dashboard Guide
The Instrument Cluster is the most important part of the dashboard in the 2020 Chevrolet Blazer. It shows important information to the driver in a way that is easy to see and understand. This digital display is right behind the steering wheel and shows a lot of information, such as the speed of the vehicle, the engine’s RPM, the fuel level, the temperature, and different danger lights. The Instrument Cluster’s modern look and easy-to-use interface make the driver more aware and make it easier to keep an eye on important car functions. Its integration into the Blazer’s sleek interior shows that Chevrolet is committed to fusing usefulness with modern style. This makes sure that drivers can easily access important information while enjoying a smooth and stylish driving experience.

Warning Lights, Gauges, and Indicators
Warning lights and gauges can signal that something is wrong before it becomes serious enough to cause an expensive repair or replacement. Paying attention to the warning lights and gauges could prevent injury.
Some warning lights come on briefly when the engine is started to indicate they are working. When one of the warning lights comes on and stays on while driving, or when one of the gauges shows there may be a problem, check the section that explains what to do. Waiting to do repairs can be costly and even dangerous.

Tachometer
The tachometer displays the engine speed in revolutions per minute (rpm).
With the Stop/Start system, when the ignition is on, the tachometer indicates the vehicle status. When pointing to AUTO STOP, the engine is off but the vehicle is on and can move. The engine could auto-start at any time. When the indicator points to OFF, the vehicle is off.
When the engine is on, the tachometer will indicate the engine’s revolutions per minute (rpm). The tachometer may vary by several hundred rpm, during Auto Stop mode, when the engine is shutting off and restarting.
Fuel Gauge

English Base and Midlevel

When the ignition is on, the fuel gauge indicates how much fuel is left in the tank.
An arrow on the fuel gauge indicates the side of the vehicle the fuel door is on.
When the indicator is empty, the low fuel light comes on. There is a small amount of fuel left, but the fuel tank should be filled soon. Here are things that some owners ask about. None of these show a problem with the fuel gauge:
- At the service station, the fuel pump shuts off before the gauge reads full.
- It takes a little more or less fuel to fill up than the gauge indicated. For example, the gauge indicated the tank was half full, but it took a little more or less than half the tank’s capacity to fill the tank.
- The gauge moves a little while turning a corner or speeding up.
- The gauge takes a few seconds to stabilize after the ignition is turned on, and goes back to empty when the ignition is turned off.

Engine Oil Temperature Gauge
Metric
English
This gauge shows the engine oil temperature. If the gauge pointer moves into the high end, it means that the engine oil has overheated. If the vehicle has been operated under normal driving conditions, pull off the road, stop the vehicle, and turn off the engine as soon as possible.
Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge
Metric Base and Midlevel
English Base and Midlevel
Metric Uplevel
English Uplevel
This gauge shows the engine coolant temperature. If the pointer moves toward the warning area at the high end of the gauge, the engine is too hot.
If the engine coolant has overheated and the vehicle has been operating under normal driving conditions, pull off the road, stop the vehicle, and turn off the engine as soon as possible. See Engine Overheating.
Voltmeter Gauge
When the ignition is on, this gauge indicates the battery voltage.
When the engine is running, this gauge shows the condition of the charging system. The gauge can transition from a higher to lower or a lower to higher reading. This is normal. If the vehicle is operating outside the normal operating range, the charging system light comes on.
Readings outside the normal operating range can also occur when a large number of electrical accessories are operating in the vehicle and the engine is left idling for an extended period. This condition is normal since the charging system is not able to provide full power at the engine idle. As engine speeds are increased, this condition should correct itself as higher engine speeds allow the charging system to create maximum power.
The vehicle can only be driven for a short time with the readings outside the normal operating range. If the vehicle must be driven, turn off all accessories, such as the radio and air conditioner, and unplug all chargers and accessories.
Readings outside the normal operating range indicate a possible problem in the electrical system. Have the vehicle serviced as soon as possible.
