speedo is going crazy please help!!!!!!!!!!!!

Post by azazel19 »

Ok here is the deal this doesn't happen all the time but is starting to happen more often. When I'm going down the road the speedodometer will show a bunch of crazy speeds and then go to zero. It will sit on zero for a while and then work fine then it will crap out again a couple of days later. Has anyone had this problem or atleast tell me what could be the problem? thanks in advance.

Just an idea, but maybe the contacts on the plugs on the back of your guage cluster need cleaning.

Perhaps the speed sensor is starting to go bad and is sending erratic signals.

Is your car still under warranty?
