sounds like a broken speedometer cable.
its probably a blown fuse or relay
The most common reason for a speedometer to fail is a broken speedometer cable. Loosen the nuts on each end of the speedometer cable. Remove the speedometer cable retaining clips. Reverse the process to install the new speedometer cable.
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.
Some speedometers have a cable that connects the drive gear in the transmission to the drive gear in the speedometer. The cable can break or the gears can strip. Some speedometers have a wire that sends an electrical signal from a sensor in the transmission to an electronic head unit. The wire can break, the connector can fail or become disconnected, or the head unit can fail.
In a 1990 the speedometer is electronic, but the odometer is gear driven. These gears fail frequently. I would suggest visiting the IPD website. They have the gear along with an instructional DVD to help the process.
how do you fix fail safe mode to normal in vw turbo 1999?
because of the monkeys in Iraq and alex Wu.
There could be several things wrong with your Durango including bad speed sensors, a bad instrument cluster, broken cable or connector, etc. There is a very common problem with Dodge Durango's, however, that causes the speedometer to fail or only begin to work after about 15-20 mph. On my 1999 Durango, the anti-lock brake light was permanently on along with the parking brake light. My speedometer did not work below about 15 mph. I did a serach online and found that lots of people had this same problem and it was due to a faulty rear speed sensor. This sensor is mounted on top of the rear differental and can easily be removed and replaced with a socket wrench. A new one costs about $12. If you are experiencing similar problems I would suggest trying to replace it.
The answer is of-course not. No one likes to fail.
I believe the quote is actually "If you fail to prepare then you are preparing to fail" and it would be Benjamin Franklin.
Okay well I have a 1999 Ford Taurus and I have heard that when a Taurus reaches about 120,000 miles the tranny is bound to fail. Mine revs up real high and feels like I'm driving in neutral and has a smell. When it happens my speedometer stops working, which is powered by the tranny. Hope that helps you.
