Re: speedometer

Could be the sensor on the tranny. It's under the battery, closer to the firewall. Take that out and replace it. There's little gears on it that may have caused it to go bad.

Re: speedometer

Check your speedometer fluid, if its not working at all you probably ran 'er bone dry. Only use high grade fluid though, the cheap shit tends to attract lawn gnomes and batman underpants.

Re: speedometer

Dude this thread is super old. Dont bring back old threads just make a new one. Could be the gauge cluster, speed sensor, or even the plastic gear that runs the speedo. They can sometimes break and cause the speedo not to work
