    You need to say what type of car dude.

    Some cars have speed sensors. Others do it mechanically.

    Cefiro 97. I guess that's with speed sensor and injected car.

    I'd say 80% it's just your speed sensor dude. Go to some surplus shop and have a new one installed then check if it works na. No need for an electrician since this is plug and play. If i remember correctly it's just three screws and a plug which you have to press on the socket to remove. Check the socket if it's not corroded if so then replace socket as well. Make sure they don't use electric tape and the sticky sorts. Have it soldered properly with heat shrink tubes.

    The remote security lock you can have it done in any car audio shops that sell alarm systems. Just make sure they don't use electrical tape or make tali lang per hand. Professionally it has to be soldered and isolated with heat shrink tubes.

    Heat shrink tubes you can buy in ACE na. it's 87~110php depending on the size. Solder lead is 75php and soldering iron 100~300php depending on brand.

    If these are not soldered properly wala rin babalik at babalik ung symptoms after a year or month.

Gauge Problem, any suggestion?
