I have checked all the fuses I know of, 3 locations. I can't find any that's faulty. My speedometer went out a month ago and does not move. The temputure comes on and off mostly off. Help me find & solve my problem.


THANKS

Hi Ladytazs,

Thank you for the donation.

The system used on this vehicle uses a logic unit in the instrument cluster and it is not a simple job of testing for fuses or broken wires.

Being computerised, scanning tools would be required to go into diagnostics to get to the bottom of the problem.

Autozone provides free scanning services for engines and trans but I do not know if their scanners have the capabilities retrieve codes for the instrument cluster gauges. give it a try and if you have any codes, post them here and I will see if I can get some info on the problem.
