Why?
The speedometer doesn't work. It doesn't respond to the speed we are going.
For any of you who may have been watching this question, I'll give you the answer myself. The answer is YES. After purchasing the one with the factory tach and installing it, everything works like it should.
It depends on the year and options. Which year model are you asking about? On the 1996-2000 cluster, there's a light between the tach and speedometer for the cruise control (if equipped).
Tach is driven by a motor signal, speedo is from the trans the sensor is bad on the transmission
It does not have a fuse, the speed sensor works the speed-o-meter \ \ I disagree, because the Radio fuse , in the fuse box under the hood will work the speedometer, Tach, and Message center
Blue wire is for a tach I believe
yes
There isn't one, you shift by "feel" or by the red tick marks on your speedometer ,|,&.
Try changing the headlight switch.
I'm not sure about the speedometer, but if the tach is not working a good bet would be the tach filter. With age, a wire often breaks off on these. Look in one of the service manuals to find location. The speedometer may have a similar sensor, but I'm not certain. Thanks! I will check out the book ASAP. Appreciate your answering.
Check for a blown fuse.
