Default Speedometer issue

I have a 94 Civic cx hatch back with manual transmission. 300,000 Km

My speedometer has been acting up.

I will be driving along doing 60 km/h and then from time to time the needle will jump around. Sometimes it will go back to the speed I was doing i.e. 60 km/h but other time is will drop to zero.

It will then stay at zero for a random amount of time, finally going back to the speed I had been doing.

Also, sometimes while at zero I could push and hold the trip counter reset button, and while pressed down it would start to read the current speed.

Any ideas?

Paul

I'll make two points:
Vss sensor (or the connector to it).

You're in the accord forum
