Safari odo and speedometer trouble

katja-evan, Sep 26, 11:33am
Hi, i have a 1990 Safari. a while back it started to give trouble. Sometimes the odo ánd speedometer didn't work, a few weeks ago they stopped working all the time. I checked under the dashboard and also took the sensor out and tried if it worked when i spinned it using my drill but it didn't. Does anyone know how to test the sensor or have another solution! Thanks

This is probably a cold soldered joint this happened on my nissan safari, sent it in to an instument repair shop in Newtom seven years ago, no trouble since.

and commit fraud. Not to mention if someone else buys the car later on the basis of low mileage when its done huge kilometers.
