What would caused the speedometer to go crazy and jump all over the place?

If it is a cable driven system, usually a jerky needle is caused by a dry cable, either replace or lube the cable as it is getting stuck and stopping for a second then getting unstuck and jumping back to current speed. If it is an electronic speedo then it could be a loose connection under the car, usually they tie into the transmission to get speed input. Or could be as worse as a faulty speedo in the dash.

Where is the speedometer fuse located in a ford ranger?
I believe the fuse that protects the speedometer also protects all the gauges in the dash cluster, so if that fuse was burned out all the gauges would be dead. If only the speedometer is not working I would suspect the speed sensor in the transmission to at fault, if the wiring checks okay.

How would you give the impression that a character in your story was crazy?
Nobody can write your story for you! You must think of things that have an emotional impact for you. What things would you consider crazy if someone did them? How do crazy people talk? What things would a crazy person do? Why is this person crazy? What made him crazy in the first place? Why does he go into this room? Even crazy people have reasons. What kind of crazy? Just general weirdness and being off-the-wall, or a genuine mental disorder? If a mental disorder, what is it? How would it affect them? If general weirdness, is it deliberate? How do they react in certain circumstances? How does stress take them?
