If you had a speedometer with a tachometer and you replaced it with a speedometer without a tachometer will it work?
it sure would work.. behind the dashboard are plugs for each
function. one for tachometer, one for speedometer, fuel, water
temp. ect.. if your new dash doesn't have a tachometer it will not
interfere with the speedomet aspect of it. but you will not have a
tach obviously. that sucks kid

What could cause the speedometer and tachometer to fail on an 1984 Fiero SE and how would you fix it?
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.

How do you change the speedometer cable on a 1990 Nissan 240sx?
The 240sx does not use a speedometer cable. It is electronic.
The VSS (vehicle speed sensor) is located on the transmission. It
sends pulses.
Answer
I removed my entire guage cluster and never saw a cable, it was all
electronic. not sure if that's where the cable would be, but that's
what i found, just three plugs coming out of the cluster....
