Hey I have a 1993 Ford Tempo that ive had for about maybe 4 months. I bought it used off someone and its been running pretty good until yesterday when the speedometer and the odometer stopped working. Ive checked the fuse box and everything seems to be fine. Does anyone know what might be wrong with it?

HI:
It sounds like the cable has broken or come disconnected. Check behind the dask where it attaches to the speedo to make sure it's attached. If it is, remove it and drive the vehicle. The steel cable within the cable assembly should turn. If it doesn't, make sure it's attached at the trans and if it is, replace the cable.
