have a problem with my speedo everything else works fine apart from the speedo what could it be

[Varche]

Hi, first off can you go into your profile and edit the details of your car please? Auto or man and year,model type.  (Edit - blast you have just done it or I didn't see it , sorry) It makes it easier for people helping with this problem and indeed any future issues.

This sort of problem can be something dead simple or it could be a failure in the ABS ECU . Are all your dashboard lights present and working correctly e.g. do they come on at start up and then go off within a few seconds?

yeah thay all work fine. just the speedo that dosent seem to be working

Has the dash been removed and replaced recently?  :-?

[chuckles]

no it hasent been removed . I am worried that it not the dash and its somthing more technical

[kris9128]

could be abs ecu. have same prob on mine. really annoying. think theres a thread about it in maintanence section.

Does the steering go heavy?
Could if not an ABS ECU be a dirty ABS sensor.

[chuckles]

just had the car m.o.t and had two new abs sensors fitted so im hoping it is not that as it has cost an arm and a leg. steering is fine tho.

The reason for asking is that the steering assistance is speed sensitive.  if the ABS unit fails then steering will go heavy because it will not detect the speed for assistance.  Do you have cruise control?  does that continue to work.  If so then it is pointing to the dash not ABS unit.  oh and why were two new ABS sensors fitted?  Are they fitted properly?  pattern parts or genuine

[chuckles]

it dose not have  cruise control. sensors were replaced because thay werent working so the garage told me and was told thay were genuine . could thay have not fitted them properly or could i have another one that isnt working.
