The logical problem - would be a broken speedo cable. The speedo & odometer are both run from the same cable.

What causes speedometer not to work on gm alero?

If the speedometer and odometer are both not working, I would blame the speed sensor. If only the speedometer does not work and the odometer does work, the cluster is bad.


What causes the Odometer to stop working but the speedometer to continue working on a 1992 Crown Victoria LX 4.6L and what actions can be taken to repair this problem?

There are two possible actions: 1) Replace the speedometer head assembly, because that is where your problem is. 2) Ignore the broken odometer and forget about it. The speedometer and odometer are one assembly. The same input that drives the speedo also drives the odometer, so you have a problem in the head itself.

What causes an odometer not to work on a 1987 BMW 325is?

If the odometer is not working but the speedometer is still indicating speed, the most likely fault is a set of small plastic gears inside the speedometer instrument itself. I have seen these gears available for sale at various BMW parts specialists. Removing the dash cluster for access to the speedometer is not difficult in a 1987 E30 car. With the cluster on the bench, you can repair the speedometer gears or replace the whole thing. Used speedometers are plentiful at on-line auction sites such as eBay.

What causes the speedometer and odometer and tripometer to not work on a 1996 Ford Crown Victoria 4.6 liter?

If all three are not working then it is a pretty good bet the speed cable is either broken or has come off. The cable runs from the rear of the front left wheel to the back of the speedometer, it looks like a brake cable from a bike. speed sensor could be bad.

The speedometer needs to work in a vehicle for safety and informative reasons. The causes of it intermittently working could be the lack of electricity, or a problem with the sensor.Ê


How do you fix a odometer on your 1995 Nissan 200 se-r?

This is based on my experience with a 1995 200 sx se. I assume they are similar. The se uses the 1.6 engine and the se-r the 2.0. engine. The odometer runs on the same electronic gear driven sensor as the speedometer so if the speedometer is working and the odometer is not the problem is in the "Speed head" (speedometer unit in the dash). Mine and several others I have seen break at about 40,000 and will need replacing but first; If neither are working try to set your Cruise control. If it "goes wild" with clicks etc. and does not work the problem is likely the speed sensor located on the transmission. Find it on top on the transmission rear the fire wall. One set screw hold a small retaining plate. Remove it and pull straight up. The nylon gear wears out and causes it to not contact the drive gear anymore.
