My speedometer hasn't been working for quite sometime while. It sits at 0 until i reach about 60 mph. Then it goes up to 65 mph and just stays there until i go below 50 again. My odometer works fine and once in a blue moon my speedo will start working again for a short time. I have also changed the speed sensor but still the problem persists. Would be great if you could help me out.

I replaced the tranny speed sensor but still it does not work. Do I need to replace the whole speedomenter console now?

Get in there and pull a CSI on it, might be loose contact etc.

CSI= Crime Scene Investigation-I mean inspect till you identify the problem and the caused. Be thorough.
