i changed the gear at the wheel, the cable and now the instrument. I was looking at the schematics and it looks like i may be missing a dust cover (washer looking thing) does anyone thing this would somehow prevent the speedometer from working?

Will a 1997 transmission fit your 1998 Tahoe?

yes it will work. i heard it wouldn't work but it will. i just done it last night. mine is a 93 Chevy c1500 and the transmission came out of a 2003 Chevy silverado. i had to use the fly wheel off of a newer style 4.3 liter and i had to adapt the speedo plug- it will not change with out the speedo plug hooked up. don't listen to the people that say it wont work cause i know for a fact it will at least in a 2wd. the ones that say it wont work probley never tried it any way.

If your trans fluid is low will this make your speedometer not work it is not a digital speedometer?

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


What causes the odometer to not work on a 1993 ford crown victor?

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.
