What would make your speed odometer stop working after putting an alternator on? 2005 Chevy Malibu
no the odometer is for the car not the engine
The odometer stays on for a while so that service personnel have time to record the mileage when, say, getting your oil changed. It uses very little power.
maybe your speed sensor is bad you will get a check engine light on the dashboard too.
the speedometer on my 97 toyota camary stopped working and the check engine light came on why
No
no, installing a new engine will not reset the odometer, it's against the law to reset odometers.
I don't believe there is one. I believe its run electronically. The odometer cable does exist, but it is connected to the transmission, not the engine.
No, it is illegal to reset the odometer because it does nt just track engine miles buy also mileage of the tranny body and other parts. If it stops working you can replace it with a new one set to zero but the cars mileage is recorded on the title so you will have to take that into account if your trying to sell it as a newer car.
On my 2008 Highlander, I started the engine and set the odometer to trip A. Shut off engine and restart while holding down the odometer button.
AnswerThe 98 Pontiac stores the odometer in the instrument panel cluster. The odometer can be reprogramed either by the dealer or there are companies that will re-program it for you (seach google, there are lots). Or you can buy the odometer programmer for about $1000 but its cheaper to just send the cluster module in. (not only is it legal to reset the odometer; its required in most states when you replace the engine. The odometer is required to reflect the mileage of the engine *NOT* the vehicle)
