Alright guys, I am back again with some weird questions.
Recently my speedo stopped working. I can drive about a 1/4 of a mile, my check engine light will come on, if i come to a stop the car will shut off. I can start the car back up just fine, check engine light off an have no issues for about another 1/4 mile. (think she watched to many fast & furious movies lol)
I checked my speedo cable, its all intact. I checked the plastic speedo gear, it is also intact. I can spin that gear and watch the speedo cable to see it turning. when I put the speedo sensor back in, jack the car up and run it through the gears, the speedo cable will not turn.
When I look into the tail housing it seems as though the gear on the output shaft might have slid back on the shaft.
Is the inside gear metal or plastic? I can see a metal one that's just out of reach for the speedo sensor to come into contact with.
thank you guys for the help,
Garrett.
