Symptoms of speedo:
-jumps to like 45km/h when going in reverse at any speed
-stays at 68-70km/h when driving any speed (5km/h, 40, 90, etc...)
-when signtificantly fast (140-150km/h) the speedo registers 0
Intermittently the speedo will continuously display the correct speed (usually after driving for like 20 minutes or so). After I come back to the car and start driving again the speedo is not working properly.
I checked the speed sensor underneath and all the harnesses are plugged in. The gauge cluster itself has not been tampered with (all OEM 180SX) so I don't know if it would be wiring issues. Speedo was working perfectly for a 6 months before this.
I'm thinking I should pull the speed sensor and check it (do I need to drain the tranny oil?) Any specific test for this?
