Whitesupraboy2 Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Well you get in car drive 2 miles / 5mins roughly down the road and speedo goes nut shooting up to 180 mph, off the dial up and down like a yoyo then dead! sometiems it then goes back to mormal for mile then nuts again. Now what i didnt realise till i turned lights off on road to test was,when my lights are off speedo is perfectly fine and when lights on it goes nuts, this happened last winter but then fine in summer time. anyone got any ideas?? it must be something to do with the lights, coz guarnteed whatever needle is doing, turn the lights off and its fine. thanx James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kopite Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 i would usually ask if you were bein heavy footed and actually hitting 180mph .......then i realised your NA isnt fast enough j/k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeb Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 Poor/faulty earth to the bulbs in the dash, which are earthing through the speedo instead, maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitesupraboy2 Posted January 24, 2005 Author Share Posted January 24, 2005 Thanx for reply, guess it sounds like a dash off experience and check cabling and tighter and check connections. Whats weird is i guarntee i can almost get to same place each morning before it starts and if i drive round over 10miles or so it goes back to normal and doesnt seem to occur!...well if this only problem i ever have ..then im happy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
