Speedo stops? works? stops? and well...yea
Ok, here goes.
I get off of work last week, drive across town, look at the speedo and notice that its not working at all. So i get onto the interstate to head home and as soon as i throw it into 4th the speedo kicks back in gear and works fine for another week. Today gets here and it does it again. Except this time, while it wasn't working i hooked diacom up and noticed that the ECM could see see what speed i was going even though the speedo needle wasn't responding, which is basically all i care about(so the car will run correctly).
Any ideas to what is going on??

have you had the guage cluster out lately? You may not have hooked the speedo cable up correctly.
Just a thought...
