speedometer quit

[jutsin]

A while back my tach quit one my 89', this is ok 'cause i know the when to shift....but the other day my speedo. quit.

I manouvered myself under the steering wheel and followed the cable through the firewall and found it in the motor compartment..

I took it off and was in the process of unscrewing it from the meter adn just thought i would give it a turn, guess what it worked.

I put it all back together and went for a drive and it still didnt work. I took it back home and haven't messed w/ it again.

can anyone give me some advice or tell me how to fix this???????? :wave:

Find where the line leaves the top of the tranny. Follow it up the side of the motor where it goes into the firewall. Just about 12 to 8 inches before the firewall it will have a connector. This connector has a pin that goes through the top to hold the then together. You can use a screwdriver and remove it. The part bad can be found at napa or oriellys. I think its the speed sensor. It gets screwed onto the tranny, then you attach the cable. I had the same thing happen, spent $30 or so bucks and it works again. Not to mention its smoother too. Something you might look into?
