Speedometer stop working - HELP*****
I have a 92 Honda Civic DX Automatic.
The car shifts kinda long, which i think has something to do with the Speedometer on my gauge cluster stop working. SO pretty much when i drive i have no idea how fast i'm going, let alone the car shifts really bad, IT"S AUTOMATIC.
So I replaced the VSS, Speed sensor, and the problems still exist.
I NEED HELP!!!!

Re: Speedometer stop working - HELP***** (Tuan)
Well i dont think they still have it on the newer civics, but my old crx had a speedometer cable that goes from the back side of the tranny up to the gauge cluster....worth a shot, sorry if i wasnt any help.

This is kind of a long shot b/c I have a 97 EX and the fuses are probably totally different but I had this same problem and it wasn't the VSS, it ended up being fuse #15 which has something to do with the VSS. Find out which fuse is for the VSS and check it.

same problem here! Did another swap in my hatch and the VSS doesnt read! Never checked fuse and never pulled out display to see if the plug popped out! I will get there eventually, im just lazy!

people are always mislead into thinking that the vss is almost always the culprit...when it could be something else...like i've seen a couple posts that say the speedo has corrosion or something.

My vss tested good and my speedometer only works sometimes, so I ordered the speedometer which I hope is the same thing as what your talking about and not the entire cluster(fuel, tach, etc) Im not even sure what the part will look like, anyone know, and it is a elecronic speedometer so maybe it will come with the board.
