I have a 1999 Windstar, not sure what its called but I had the same prob, look on the right side of ur motor under the air filter pieces, just check wire connections, its not real obvious either so you will have to take it off the intake and look,(no tools need to take black tube off, just clamps holding it) it is kinda tough to see but you should be able to find it. I know it would be easier if i knew names of parts but all newer models are just a pain I fix them not worried bout names, good luck I hope this helps
If the speedometer and the odometer are not working, I would suspect the VSS (vehicle speed sensor). If only the speedometer is not working I would suspect the instrument cluster has problems.
If both odometer and speedometer are not working I would blame the vehicle speed sensor. If just the odometer isn't working the gauge cluster assembly needs to be replaced with a reconditioned one.
If your speedometer has stopped working just put the key in the off position and hold down the trip odometer button until you see some codes come on the odometer. That should reset your speedometer. I could not figure out which fuse was for the speedometer and some one told me about this and it worked right away.
That's your LOW tire pressure warning light in a 2002 Ford Windstar
If the speedometer and odometer are not working it may be a faulty VSS (Vehicle Speed Sensor) located on the tail end of the transmission. If only the speedometer is not working it is probably in the cluster and would require replacing the cluster as one unit with a new, rebuilt or used cluster.
my light on the odometer is not working anymore how do you replace the bulb on it
i had this same problem, it was the headlight switch, cost about 30 bucks in a 2002. it also messed with the navigation system
Could be your speed sensor on your transmission
- I have a 2002 Caravan with the similar symptoms - speedometer stopped working but tripometer and odometer still work. The speedometer needle is wrapped all the way around past the top speed and resting on the bottom of the needle resting peg. I saw a posting about reseting the dashboard by removing the IOD fuse and replacing it but that did not help. I also tried pressing the trip button in and turning the ignition on as described in another post with no luck. Has anyone solved this or do I have a faulty speedometer requiring replacement? thanks Steve
The speedometer cable is bad. It has a kink or a break in the line. I was guess a break from what you are describing.
If the speedometer is still working and the odometer isn't, then you have an internal failure in the speedometer head assembly. Everything is self contained and non-servicable. It can only be replaced as an entire assembly. There is a microproccessor(computer) in it that uses vehicle speed information provided by the vehicle's data network to operate both the speedo and the odo. If one of those two is operating but not both, then the speedo head is getting the input it needs from the network, and processing it. Whatever componet is not operating has failed, but it is not servicable without the entire assembly.
2002 Tahoe speedometer quit working and trans will not shift, ABS light on. NEW ANSWER: You need to have the engine and transmission scanned with an OBDII engine scanner so you can find out what speed sensor has gone bad / quite working.
