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.
A wire going to the battery broke off, when it was reconnected the gauges and lights on the gauges start working again, however the speedometer and the tachometer did not operate.
It could just be broken. Or the gadget in you gas tank has been displaced
You probably have a cracked EGR tube The Fiero Store has replacements Google them
A bad ignition coil can cause your 1987 Acura tachometer to quit working. A bad tachometer cable or ground wire can also cause it to quit working.
the speed sensor, trans. sensor , or the speedometer cable
Broken speedometer cable?
it is a defective speed sensor.
Speed sensor bad.
Bad spark plugs can indirectly affect the speedometer's performance, but they are not a direct cause of speedometer malfunction. If the engine misfires due to faulty spark plugs, it can lead to erratic vehicle performance, which might cause the speedometer to register incorrect speeds. However, speedometer issues are more commonly related to problems with the vehicle's speed sensor, wiring, or the instrument cluster itself.
Both of these run off systems using electrical pulse from the engine/transmission. It is common for the ground from the gauges to separate from other grounds and grounded together in the dash and to the engine block. Check this grounding system.
If the grinding sound seems to be coming from the speedometer and grinds faster as your speed increases, the likely cause is the speedometer cable. At least some 1990 Dodge trucks (mine) have electric speedometers Len
There are a few reasons that could cause the speedometer to stop working on your Toyota Camry. If the mileage is still working then the speedometer cable end is damaged. If both the odometer and speedometer do not work then the cable is most likely broken.
