Yeah, I had that problem. It was a blown fuse. Is it only the speedometer? Or the whole cluster? On mine it was just the speedo that didn't work. Replaced the little blue fuse under the dash. Sorry if this is wrong. Just trying to help.

Nope not fuse,anything else? Speedo only has 70k so no reason it should be dead...and little blue fuse? i didnt see any blue fuses in the kick pannel that had to do with the cluster...

it's the capacitor on the speedo, they wear out, you need to replace it, i lazy to find the link, but there's a write up on some site, i believe me and undercoveredjay have posted it somewhere regarding hud/digital speedo not working.

Speedo/HUD works ,interior lights,stereo dont work,also tonight went drifting a bit and when i was on the freeway i noticed the dash lights shut off,HUD and speedo and gauges still working but then on again,then off,but still doesnt solve the interior lights,and stereo issue.

sounds like a simple grounding issue to me. check and clean all your grounds

well it has to be with something that you touched or altered. I would look into the tach. Sorry I can't help more, I'm not a 240 guy

Nah the tach is fine and so is the cluster. I tryed to hook up the old analog and it didnt change anything...
Stereo still doesnt work,interior lights dont work,auto seatblets dont work unless key is on.
