What causes the speedometer to not work?

Post by CalgaryMx-3Guy »

My speedo sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. Sometimes I can hear a spinning of something behind the gauge cluster. Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this?

Im in the same situation.
Theres a little snap clip on the top of the speedo line that plugs right in the back of the cluster.
Check that out to see if its securely in there.
