Re: Speedometer Problems

Does your Explorer have ABS and if so, does the ABS work?

I'm not positive on the 1996, but on many of the late-'90's and newer Ford products, the speedometer gets it's signal from the ABS wheel speed sensors. If the ABS works but the speedometer does not, then the problem is likely in the instrument cluster, and probably a bad connection. Instrument panel flex cables have been an issue.
