Hello everyone so I have a 94 Honda civic ex with a SOHC 1.6 liter engine and I am having problems with the tachometer and the speedometer on the instrument cluster both gas and temperature gauges work but tachometer and speedometer do not. I have purchased a used instrument cluster and replaced the old but the tachometer and the speedometer still do not work and the gas and temperature gauges work on the replacement instrument cluster as well but still tachometer and speedometer are non responsive, can anyone help me out? thank you for your time.

Post the CEL codes thrown.

Check whether the blue tach wire is damaged or detached from the igniter unit inside the distributor. If not, the igniter unit may be bad, causing the tach problem.

Thank you for replying to my post i have been going crazy trying to diagnose this problem, for some odd reason the check engine light will turn on after about 10 miles of driving but everytime the car gets turned off the check engine light resets so i cannot get any codes
