Speedometer issues

Postby SquirrelCrusher » Sun May 13, 2012 10:01 pm

The speedometer in the jeep started giving me issues. Cruising home it stopped on the highway for 30 seconds or so but it came back to life. Now the speedo comes and gos. So far I've read that the grounds in the cluster get worked loose and will cause the issue. Going to check that out tomorrow anything else to look at?

I'd check the connection at the transfer case first. Easier to get to. Should be a two wire plug. I know mine was a mess when I swapped out transmissions.

Well I pulled the instrument cluster a few days ago and lightly tightened the screws on the back. Speedo seems to be fixed but now my coolant temp gauge no worky. :oops:
