The needle on my MPH gauge bounces around when I am going under 45 mph. It bounces within a 10 mph range. Just wandering if this is an easy fix or not.
-
Sometimes you can just pull the spedo cable off and put some oil/grease on it. Other times you need to replace the entire thing.
-
mine did that, then the needle on the cable end broke off.. :o
new one should be 42 bucks at a dealer, and takes about an hour to get it on (less if you know the cables route (not too hard to change)
-
Mine was doing the same thing, so i replaced the cable, and it did exactly the same thing, plus i was out 40 something bucks. I'm calling my actual speedo gauge faulty, as the odometer is working perfectly.
-
my 96 does that PLUS it makes a scratchy-noise
anyone have directions how to change it?
-
Speedo ??? all you need is a tach >:D
-
Well I guess I will try to find a good used cable and try replacing it. Do you have to take a bunch of things off or just the cluster.
-
I took the cluster out of mine and now I can't get my hands in there to reconnect the cable. I'm going to disconnect it from the gearbox end and push it through a bit. To rephrase that you might find it easier to disconnect it from the gearbox end first ;D
-
I had to fiddle fart around with mine to.I had to stick my hand up and under the dash to reconnect it to the cluster.
-
sounds like a pain in the ass when you got big arms like me
-
I was able to change mine out by pulling the cluster part of the way out. I did not disconnect the tach, other guages, or the wiring to the idiot lights. It scratched my hands a little but was able to connect the new speedo cable.

take out the front speaker, and reach up there to put it in.. Got an email address? I got a couple book scans here from when I had to change mine out if you want to check them out ;D

I can't get my arm in the speaker hole hardly at all.. guess my arm is too fat..
I found it quite difficult to reach, if I did it again, I would definitely disconnect it at the tranny and pull the cluster with it still connected.. (I think...)

i got them at home, ill send them in a few hours when I get back.. I think the replacement diagrams are specifically for a 93 model but, it should work for any year i think. Only difference i can figure is the dash is a bit harder to get through on the later models cause of how they are set up.

emails sent ;D
