How do I fix a Speedometer that dosen't work?

SOURCE: i bought my 91 without a working speedometer.

iv done a b16a swap in my ef civic and its got a jdm 112mph speed limiter, i tried disconecting the vehicle speed sensor (vss) wire to stop it cutting in but my car just went on to limp mode.... maybe try finding the wiring for the engine and ecu on the net and find the vss, then just follow the wire through the car checking the conections

SOURCE: Speedometer works sporadically

It sounds as if liquid got into the instrument cluster and the speedometer gauge might have some rust on the spring. Check to see if any other gauge is sticking sometimes.

SOURCE: speed sensor will only work sometimes. speed

the speedometer head could be the problem

SOURCE: Speedometer quits working and the sensor has been

when the sensor was installed it was installed wrong.
They wired it into the turn signal feed.
have your dealer or, an auto electrician fix the wiring to your sensor.

SOURCE: speedometer does not work already tried two new

You have a short burning them out. The only way to fix is by checking each wire for a good current.
