Default Speedometer problem

Car: 91 Accord Wagon

I have a speedometer thats just plainly not working. The blinking signal says the same. The speedometer sometimes works and sometimes just flatlines at 0mph. Also sometimes the engine check light comes on randomly. Its really weird. Where should i start to check stuff?

check all your wiring connections....could be your speed sensor.

do this:

https://honda-tech.com/zerosearch type in speedometer and search under the archived content in the accord forum. there are several results, as i have just searched for it. read through those to see if you can fix your problem. the search link is your friend!

maybe if it was a different color it would make a difference
