Problems with Cluster (Spedometer) doesnt work/jumps @ high speeds
-- about 2 weeks after purchasing this car, 94 rs integra, a POS cavalier called me out. so i raced him, and as i was shifting my entire car jerks (pro shifting 
haha) and as my car chirped and made a ruckus. My cluster died, and all gauges went down. Then i shut off my car and reset the trip meter and it worked fine. but the spedometer seemed to increase slowly. i left it go, and the next day i raced some more and it totaly went now. everything works fine except the spedometer. egine light came on too since it has been out. im looking for a new cluster, but my friend said it actually might not be the cluster but some sensor. --- when im travling at high speeds 115+ it works but jumps to 20mph and bounces. idk what the problem is .... anyone with similar problems or know a resolution?

---- yuou think its the sensor instead of the cluster itself? cause it still works only @ certain specific times. but barely.

VSS's go out more often than speedometers. But since your check engine light came on, it is most likely for the VSS.

All the part numbers to the right.
