my speedo works every now and then and when its not working it stays at 20...what do i need to replace?

sounds like the speedo head. my 94 did that. you can either send it off to a speedo repair place (no swimsuit jokes, please), or get a new one....

thanks for the reply, and where do i find one of them?...and a buddy of mine said it could be the vehicle speed sensor? is that a possibility also?

wow, i just realized this is site help...im an idiot. anyway it can be moved to get more traffic?

i would guess its not the vss, cause your symptoms are identical to mine, but i beleive that if the cruise still works, its not the vss....but dont quote me on that.

The cruise only works if the speedo does.

i'd stll guess the speedo. anyone else?

It's the VSS. You are lucky.
Cruise doesn't work when speedo doesn't work = VSS problem.
Cruise works even when speedo is not working = speedo problem. On mine the cruise works even when the speedo doesn't, which means there is something wrong internaly with the speedo. That means I have to pull the speedo and send it to a speedo shop.

oh, alright cool thanks guys.:)

i found em on ebay, do i need the one with the sensor andgear? or the just the sensor?

bumppppp

ok the cruise DOES work at all times now, even when the speedo doesnt. what do i need to buy? a speedo head?

Hmmmm....now I'm stumped. Maybe it is something internal with the speedo? I really don't know. Hopefully one of our experts will get on here and comment.

My uncles has a junkyard and has a accord down there, i'll pull the gauge cluster off of there and see if it works.

Cool....let us know what fixes it!

they crushed the accord:(lol i guess im gonna have to buy one new.
