does the speedo work? the speedo, odo, and trip odo all work off the same cable if they are mechanical and not digital. so, if the speedo works, then the prob must be in the guage head. if it doesnt, then its 98 % cance theres a prob with the cable. 2% chance its with the drive gear in the trans.
by spanking it
there are 2 ,the ones on the front brakes if you have ABS and the one inside the transmission that usually gives the speedometer the drive indication.
mine doesnt hit 220k maxed speedo
If the speedo il ok but the odometer doesn't work, take it to a speedo shop as the problem is in the speedo.
it doesnt work, it breaks it doesnt work, it breaks it doesnt work, it breaks
my 89 astro's dashboard is not working, speedo is 0 cruise control doesnt work, odometer says error, whats up, help please. mccreedys@hotmail.com
Change the speedo cable!
Sorry but no, it's prolly the cable that connects the speedo to the tranny, or the speedo itself, or perhaps the speedo gear drive at the tailshaft of your trans, if you can get behind and up in back of the speedo, or just carefully loosen the speedo unit, pull it out, the cable should be easy to see, it has a clip holding it into the back of the speedo, unclip it and turn the cable with a pair of vise grips or whatever, if it's broken you'll know. It's a matter of the process of elimination, start at the speedo and work your way back to the trans if you have to, to find the problem. jr
The speedo hole is where you do it. Read the manual! Remove the 10mm bolt holding the speedo sending unit in the trans and there is a nice big hole for you to fill the trans.
No
on my windstar speedo only worked when it wanted to I replaced the speedo head 2 years later still works great
