My speedomter and odometer has gone out. So I changed my speed sensor. Pretty easy to do to. But it still doesnt work. I dont know what else to do. Does anyone have any ideas on what to try next?

IT would be much appreciated

 

Speedo head

 

How do you even begin to replace that. When i take the speedo off all thats left is the little rod that attaches to the speed sensor.

 

I just noticed my reset button doesnt work on the odometer. This means its not the speed sensor right? Or would it not work if the sensor is working? Leads me to think that particular guage is bad. Any ideas?

 

The speedo head is the gauge. A whole cluster from the boneyard would be the easiest and cheapest route.

 

yeah im go to pick-apart tomorrow and try and see if this works.

I was wondering what this is. A front wheel speed sensor? Anyone? looked it up and couldnt find it in my repair manual

 

okay this is insane... I just replaced the the whole instrument cluster and it still doesnt work. i traced the line and cant find any breaks in it. so anyone have any ideas... thinking about bringing it to a mechanic

 

Is it cable driven?

 

I believe a 92 is cable driven. Cable driven speedos where used up until 93. (I think) It might be a bad cable or a kink in it. Theyre pretty cheap to buy new.
Does the tripometer(reset button) work on the new gauge cluster you got?

 

did you check your fuses?

 

The speed sensor goes thru the PCU to the guage cluster and controls the cruise if you have one try cleaning the connectors good on everything includind the computer and use some dielectric grease when you put them back together

 

your speedo is electronic or does it have a cable

 

were you messing around by the ash tray on my wiring book for a 95 XJ it says there is a connector above the ash tray that goes to the speedo and odometer

 

It says above the ash receiver I am guessing that is the ash tray
