Hey, Zilvian's I curretly have a 1990 Nissan 240sx hatch w/ a sr20det blacktop notchtop. I purchased the vehicle with the swap already done. Everything in the car was working untill two days ago, the gauge cluster started acting up.

Everything on my cluster works (lights, RPM,Fuel,Temp.) Exept the MPH. While I was driving it started to bounce then it dropped to "0 mph". Then I stopped at a light and it started working again and it did it again. Well I ended up checking everything out, all my cables, speed sensor and everything looked good. But still didn't work. This morning it started working and now has stopped again.

I been trying to search online for every possible reason but I'm not sure what the problem is.CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME OUT??:facepalm::wtf::newbie:

You need a new speedometer. Same thing happened to me, swapped out another speedo and problem solved.
