Thread: Speedometer whirr & 2X speed?

  1. #1

    Default Speedometer whirr & 2X speed?

    Was driving daughter's car yesterday & the speedometer started to whirr loudly, and registered ~2X the real speed?

    It's stopped now, is it time for a rebuilt speedometer or something?

    You just replace the whole cable. I'd buy a new one. I bet it's about to break anyway. I bought a used one when mine broke and it broke within 6 months. Trussville had a decent price IIRC.

    Sounds like a plan, I need a new window switch for her car anyway, thanks

    It's probably used to be going TWICE the speed you were going.........
