Right, I'm in a bit of a predicament. Got my driving test on Friday, and I really don't want to cancel it - with Covid I've been waiting since March, and not being able to drive is sickening me.
My speedometer is intermittent, it's been this way since I got the car about 10 months ago. For the past 2 months it's been working absolutely fine, but it decided to take a dive at the very worst moment this week. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. It'll flick around and then work for the next mile, die, repeat.
I've replaced the speed sensor, and the plug on it looks fine.
I took the instrument panel out today and everything behind there looks fine too.
I'm stumped, could it be the dial, or the panel itself, the loom wires? The fact that it seems to work at random points puzzles me.
Any ideas?
