Hi all, the speedo on my TJ gave up the Ghost the other day, electronic, mega short SYE with tone ring and sensor set up, all other gauges are ok, anyone got any ideas.
have read stuff from check out dash connection to transfer case will start making noise soon and will blow up?? the latter being a little far fetched I think.
But if anyone can lessen the gap between the examples given I'll be glad to listen
cheers

Re: Speedo on TJ
There is a self check for the instrument panel. Hold the speedo reset button in and turn on the key, each instrument should move through its full range in turn. That will tell you if the speedo is working.
Re: Speedo on TJ
cheers mate will try that tomorrow and let ya know what happens

Re: Speedo on TJ
well , did the check thing today all gauges went through their range and all looked good, even speedo, So looks to me like the speed sensor is dodgey , is there more than one I should be looking for ??? or just the one on the end of transfer case ???
cheers

Re: Speedo on TJ
check the voltage out of the sensor on the sye and the connections too bud. From memory theres nothing else between there and the speedo in the way of sensors.

Re: Speedo on TJ
axle: Ive never had any movement. RJ did and replaced the bearings. Cant say wether its normal or not.
ECU: I thought it went through the ecu to the speedo. If you can wait Ill pull out my TJ FSM tomorrow and check.

Re: Speedo on TJ
Speedo sorted now got a new mega short SYE speed sensor from Hoppy and it's all good, just need the truspeed calibrator and I'll be super happy
