Most likely the cable is dry inside or kinked. It will form rust and get hung up as it rotates causing the jumpy needle.
Easy. Car does not have one. It is an electronic speedometer. It uses a Vehicle Speed Sensor. Better look again partner, it has a cable, unless its a sho or lx with a digital dash !!
There is no easy way. The instrument cluster will have to be removed.
undo the speedometer cable from the transfer case, undo the 10mm bolt and metal retainer. simply pull on the protruding threads from where you unscrewed the cable. should be easy.
U need a new speedometer cable. It runs from the transmission to the speedometer. They tend to break in half or just seize up after they get so old. They are easy to replace, it takes to people to do it but it is really easy to do. I hope I helped you.
On the top of the transmission. I leads into the fire wall so it should be easy to find.
your speedo cable is going bad. very typical. easy change. just good luck finding the cable
The speedometer cable gear is broken inside the transmission. If the car is older, it is an easy fix. Follow the cable to the input on the tranny, unscrew the cable and the gear is right there. Pop it out and replace it with a new one from the auto parts store. They should be able to order it for you.
I'am not sure about your vehicle, but most have a cable that runs from your speedometer to the transmission. speed is read by a gear that spins the cable. most of the time the cable is simply broken and is pretty easy to replace. if you have a digital speedometer it is usually a simple two wire cord that runs from the side of trasnsmission to speedometer. either way speed is read off the transmission on my 93 f-150 the speedometer sensor is on the third member of the rear end. I have a 1995 F150 5.8 auto 4x4. My speed sensor is on the tail shaft of the transfer case.
There is no cable....It is electric.....The speed sensor is on the transmission...Its called the VSS(Vehicle Speed Sensor)...Easy to take out and install...One bolt...Unplug the connector and remove the bolt and the sensor slides out.
no.. just get one outta a junker... its either the speedo cable itself or the dash clock.. either way neither can be fixed
Worm gear is broken. Easy fix just replace worm gear .
It hooks up to the transfer case.AnswerIt hooks up to the transfer case. What Year is your Civic?If its a 91-95 Its easy to locate the Cable. If its a 96-2010 It Has a VSS. I Suggest you bring it to a pro.
