yup.

 

take out the gauge cluster and check to see if the white speedometer plug is plugged into where its supposed to and also check and see if it spins freely

 

you might need the clip to hold the cable into the transmission. Some cars seem to need it more than others. Also, check if the cable itself is still in good shape. I broke mine when I was swapping out my engine.

 

yeah..i got the same problem with my ef/b16.
i checked the cable and it is all the way in the trans with the clip in. and it's also connected to the cluster where it should be.
so i guess my cable has to be broken?

for future reference..what cable to purchase for the B16/EF?

thanks

 

thanks for the tips guys &gt;&gt; ill let you know what we come up with
