Speedo cable probably popped out. Take off the cluster shroud and press the cable firmly onto the back of the guage. HTH.

Well, I THINK I ruled it out to be the cluster itself. Hopefully I can find one at UWI. lol. I damn sure don't want to go to Honda and pay an arm and a leg for one. Thanks guys/girls

For some odd reason, I snapped 3 of them last summer. I ran them the exact same way as the factory. I simply slid them through the factory sheath each time.

Eventually, I just got one from a civic. It was a bit longer, but worked perfectly, and has been in there for a year now.

what i hear, is that when the inside of the sheath gets worn, it tends to snap the cable easier. so, when you're at the junkyard, get the whole sheath with it.
