Hi metalmilitia212000,

Most probably the speed sensor is faulty and replacing it would solve all your problems.

I have the exact same problem. I just switched the speedometer sensor and it didn't fix anything. Although it was with a sensor from a junkyard, so I suppose it could have been bad too. I realized this is an old post, but was there ever a resolution?
