The speedometer and odometer may stop working in a Nissan Pathfinder due to an electrical short. It may also need a new spark plug.
If the speedometer breaks, it effects the odometer. Check the speedometer cable it may be broken, even under the insulation.
If the odometer stopped working and the speedometer and cruise control still work, you have a bad odometer. It is part of the speedometer assembly so the whole thing will have to be replaced.
Sorry, it can't be done. You have to change the whole unit because the odometer is tamperproof. Check with your Nissan dealer to see what your options are.
The odometer runs on the same electronic gear driven sensor as the speedometer so if the speedometer is working and the odometer is not the problem is in the "Speed head" (speedometer unit in the dash). Mine and several others I have seen break at about 40,000 and will need replacing.
maybe your speed sensor is bad you will get a check engine light on the dashboard too.
I had a similar problem on my old 90 Nissan pathfinder and it ended up been a Speedometer cable that broke.
you have to get anew speedometer,speedy bo peep.
The odometer on a 1993 Nissan Quest will stop working if the sending unit has failed. When a signal is not received from the sensor, the odometer is unable to properly update.
Most of the time, the speedometer cable breaks, and you replace it. The best way to find out, is to unscrew it from the transmission, and see if you can pull the cable out from the casing. If it checks out to be good, then it will be the drive gear inside the transmission, or the speedometer itself.
