hey h-t. well I have a 97 Honda accord se with the f22b2 motor mated to an auto trans. recently traded a fellow my ej7 for this and its not too bad.. a couple minor issues, this being one of them.

anyway, I start the car and the needle sits around 20 mph. sometimes while im moving the needle will bounce just a little bit while remaining around 20 mph. sometimes it'll work. its intermittent.

I went as far as having the car running and unplugging the sensor without any change, still stayed on 20 mph. checked the connector and seems fine with almost zero corrosion. i also put in a known good sensor to no avail.

now, before I start chasing down wires , I was wondering if anyone has had a problem like this and might be able to point me in the right direction.

all help will be much appreciated!

 

upon further searching, found a couple things to look for. thanks. please delete post.

 

anyway SOLUTION.. to my particular problem and im sure many others. a member here by the name TOOLMAN hit the nail right on the head for me. ic1 pin 10 on the speedo circuit board. removed the hardened plastic material to find a cracked joint right at that very pin location, ic1 pin 10. resoldered and haven't had a problem since. i took it for a few drives now and so far its batting 100.
