AndyCanning Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 make sure the needles are pressed down a bit more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_sport_scort Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 iv heard that the cable that connects to the speedos and makes the move, can come slightly loose from the gear box, (think thats where its mounted), so it'l keep skipping, which is why the speed keeps jumping, also iv heard that the cable its self can become twisted leading to the same,but im not too sure,but thats all iv heard and can think of, mine does it, so i just take an average Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyCanning Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 right, that makes it easier to pull the speedo fascia out, when you put the speedo fascia back in make sure you put the cable back as it does make a slight difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
