My Lazy Speedometer

[OTEP]

Kaninang papasok ako sa school bigla na lang ayaw gumana ng speedometer ko. It just fell back to zero while I was driving. Pero yung odometer at trip meter normal ang function.

Gumana siya kanina pero sobrang underspeed ang basa. Nasa Commonwealth Avenue na ko nasa 20kph lang ang reading.

Ano kaya problem?

Thanks.

speedometer cable kaya? happened to me during my volks beetle days :D. I changed the cable, yun! solved na. pwede din kung lumuwag na yung coupling ng cable sa speedometer dial mechanism.
hula ko lang yan master otep :confused:

sira na yung sender unit located somewhere in the tranny. Electronic po yung speedo ng local Gen2's so walang cable.

Pero bakit OK pa din ang odometers ko?

[pajerokid]

hmmmm. accurate pa rin? kasi kung too low yung voltage na pinapadala ng sender, the meters (speedo and odo) will still work, pero mali yung reading.

If accurate pa rin, wala nang ibang culprit diyan kung hindi yung meter mismo. :D

pajerokid is right if the odometer is accurate then you've got a meter guage problem

Update lang: IT STILL DOES NOT WORK!!!

I took out the gauge cluster yesterday and here are some of the pics. Obviously there is no speedometer cable although there seems to be a provision for it on the dashboard gauge housing itself. I checked all the connectors and they were on tight.

Pajerokid will bring his manuals over on Saturday so we can have a better idea of what is wrong.

Here is the dash with the cluster out:
