Its actually pretty easy. You can look it up on YouTube where a trained professional displays how its done; that's where I learned. I recently replaced mine with a little effort. First, you need to remove the bottom plate under the steering wheel that is connected with two screws on each side and then take the plastic portion around the steering wheel that is connected with about 4 screws. The top plastic portion that surrounds the speedometor has three self connectors that pulls out but before you do that you need to be very careful and be patient because the connectors will break and will possibly break the top plastic portion. You might be able reach under the dash and help force it out ward. Once you have taken the plastic portion off, you can see the speedometor connected and there is a single lip that you push down and it will disconnect. You know go to the engine area and squeeze the rubber part that is securing the cable, it will pop out and feed it outward. You then go underneath the car and unscrew the cable with some channel locks and feed the cable out. There is a clamp between the engine and the wall which is hard to reach but it can be bent back using a thin firm stick. Then all you have to do is repeat the process backward. You might have to play a little under the car in lining up the cable exactly with the connection. It took me a half an hour to complete. However for me, I broke the top plastic portion but I managed to buy another for only $20.00 off Craigslist.
The Mazda tachometer and the speedometer have separate cables. The tachometer cable probably does not work properly. Change the tachometer cable.
how do you run the wire for the power windows on a 91 Mazda miata
My guess would be that there isn't any speedometer cable, it is probably electronic.
Back of the speedometer, through the firewall and into the top of the transmission.
The speedometer cable on a 1987 Mazda 323 is located on top of the transmission and travels up to the dashboard. It helps the vehicle's computer monitor speeds constantly.
The speedometer cable on a 1992 Mazda MX3 is typically located on the transmission housing. It connects to the speed sensor, which measures the speed of the vehicle and sends that information to the speedometer on the dashboard. To access the speedometer cable for inspection or replacement, you may need to remove some components under the hood and possibly underneath the vehicle.
Isnt one, its hydraulic, and its next to the brake fluid resevior
remove cluster and replace cable. Reverse removal procedure for installation.
To disconnect the speedometer cable on a 2006 Mazda 3, first, ensure the vehicle is turned off and parked on a level surface. Locate the speedometer cable at the back of the instrument cluster or near the transmission, depending on your specific model. Carefully pull the cable out of its socket, twisting it slightly if necessary to release it. Make sure to handle the cable gently to avoid damaging it or any surrounding components.
To replace the speedometer cable on a Yamaha Fazer, first, ensure the bike is securely parked and the ignition is off. Remove the speedometer head by unscrewing it, then locate the cable at the back of the speedometer and unscrew it. Follow the cable back to the drive unit, disconnect it there, and replace it with the new cable by reversing the removal process. Finally, reattach the speedometer head and test to ensure proper functionality.
To change the speedometer cable on a 1988 Suzuki Samurai, first, disconnect the negative battery terminal for safety. Remove the speedometer cable from the back of the speedometer by unscrewing the retaining nut, then trace the cable back to the transmission and disconnect it there as well. Install the new cable by reversing the removal process, ensuring a secure connection at both the speedometer and transmission ends. Finally, reconnect the battery and test the speedometer to ensure it functions correctly.
The speedometer cable (which runs from the transmission to the dashboard) has snapped. This is a two-piece cable, and the one-piece cable in later Proteges will not work. I had the transmission replaced, and the cable could never be fit in properly. This is a mechanical speedometer, so you would have to change the entire speedometer part of the instrument panel to use a magnetic/electronic speedometer.
