Suprab1 Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Has your speedo stopped working? I have the same problem, it means you have a problem with your speed sensor or speed converter thing. I'm trying to find out what to look for first before ripping apart my dash again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest k21xfr Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 thanks for the replies - just had a search and found out it is a speed sensor related issue - speedos working fine by the way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digsy Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 thanks for the replies - just had a search and found out it is a speed sensor related issue - speedos working fine by the way 99 times out of 100 its not actully the speed sensor that is at fault. Its usually the circuit board behind the odometer. I replaced mine with a 2nd hnd part but there is a workaround you can do by jumping somw wires to bypass the dodgy circuit. I can't remember the details but they wil be on here somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When this fault occurs do you get anything else failing ect other than the fault codes? My speedo died & i'm getting the same fault code & was thinking speed converter but want to check all possibilities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
