m_reaney 0 Report post Posted January 3, 2004 Hi guys, I was driving my car and when I looked at the odometer it was not moving, it was resting on 0 kph. Any answer to how this has happened? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

m_reaney 0 Report post Posted January 3, 2004 Since I posted this problem while driving the speedo needle moved up and down slowly, then it came right. I just hope this lasts. I will check the fuse and others anyway, thanks bump In search of an answer, I looked through a few forums on this issue and the majority of people talked about some small gear that could have disintegrated. Could this be the case since the speedo has suddenly come right?? Appreciate your help, Regards, Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest MSBOND Report post Posted January 15, 2004 Just get it re calibrated, my hole dash dont work apart from fuel and heat ( witch is still dodgy) and my odometer is 30km to fast. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grant 4 Report post Posted January 15, 2004 It sounds a lot like a loose (or dirty) connection at the rear of your speedo, in the dash. For it to magically come right again, this would explain it. Maybe pull your dash out and check the connection. Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
