2004 chevy tahoe instrument cluster (parking brake & abs lights don't come on at all. There are no codes either. Are there specific fuses associated with these bulbs in the instrument cluster?

Hello the Chevy and the GMC are bad for the resistors breaking of the dash easy fix, but they are also bad for the pin bulbs burning out. So if you know anyone that can solder this is a cheap fix can get the bulbs on ebay but personally find someone that can do a good job and go with led bulbs they will last longer and better, but with all the issues i see you may want to look into a new cluster

Are there twist out or solder on bulbs on a 2004 chevy tahoe instrument cluster?

Back in 2004, the lamps probably were the bi-pin type mounted in holders that twisted in and out of the rear of the instrument cluster circuit board.

Why does my 04 tahoe have no power at the ignition switch and the starter will not turn over

Either your battery just died or else your battery connections have gotten so loose or dirty that you're no longer getting any power through them. Check the connections first - clean them THOROUGHLY and tighten them fully.

I have a 2004 Tahoe. When I put it in reverse it make a loud consistent grinding noise and doesn't go anywhere. But when I put it in drive, it engages. The speedometer shows that I am going up to 5

Not sure what your looking for in an answer here. If you are capable pull it out and check it out. If you are not capable take it to a shop for repair or replacement. I fear there is no easy fix for a transmission going bad. Since you say there is a bad grinding noise, it wont be a simple wire loose or vacuum line etc.

Where is the transmission modulator valve located at on a 2004 Chevy tahoe

No such thing on an electronically controlled transmission. This uses shift solenoids, not modulator valves.

On a 2004 chevy Tahoe instrument cluster board. what is the white push button above the alternator gauge

yes they can be replaced but you would have to handy and confident with a soldering iron if there isn't a small socket that the bulb fit into. Most if not all the backlighting bulbs are those clear bulbs with the blue covers over them. remove the LEDS from the twist socket without breaking the leads and they would have to be soldered directly to the circuit board like the existing bulbs.

2004 z71 tahoe when the gas gauge is at a quarter

Check your fuel filter if it needs replacement. Empty it out then connect it back. Try to start it again. Inspect the fuel filter if it filled with gasoline. Check if there is noise at the fuel tank to check if the pump is working. If it did not, inspect the fuse for your fuel pump and the relay. If both are good you may connect the fuel pump directly to the battery to see if it works. It may be a bad wiring.

2004 chevy tahoe squeel noise

It is possible that the harmonic balancer is slipping back into the timing chain cover making the scraping noise. If the vehicle has electric fans, a fan motor could be bad.

I have a 2004 utility style Chevrolet Tahoe . It have this issue where it will start , run and drive normally, but after a few miles with display “reduced engine power” and fails to get more than 1500-3000 RPMs if I’m pushing the petal all the way, the truck continues to power all cigarette lighters, TVs and my subs with no issue. But begins to idle roughly and shake the vehicle (sometimes rather violently) turning off and removing the key from the Ignition used to solve the problem, and I would be on my way. This no longer works unfortunately and my mechanic (who has previously fixed it) is not able to be contacted Highest speed it has reached was 50 going down a hill, on flat ground only 30mph

Well I was about to say you need to read the codes and fix those issues. Your truck is going into 'Limp Mode', this is indeed reduced power. The ECU is doing this to protect the engine from serious damage. You need to fix each one of those 4 error codes. Having said that, they all point to the throttle position sensor. Wnen you put your foot on the accelerator *PEDAL the sensor tell the fuel management and air management sensors, how much gas you are giving the engine. In the old days it was a cable to the carburetor, but now fuel injected and all electronic.

You can read details on the codes and how to fix here. You can also put each code with Chevrolet Tahoe into Google and look at the video tab fro how to fix.

Chevy Tahoe Sunroof is stuck open moves slightly forward and back

It sounds like it just needs to be reinitialized. Turn your key to the on position with motor off and hold the up/full vent button down for at least 30 seconds or until your sunroof either clicks or goes to the full vent position. That should fix your problem.
