Instrument cluster :(

My speedo has stopped working!

But the fuel and temperature gauges are still working fine, therefore i dont think the cable is faulty because otherwise they'd have stopped too wouldnt they???

If i need a new cluster then i want one with rev counter too is anyone selling one? Know of anyone selling one???

Re: Instrument cluster :(

The speedo cable has its own seperate mechanical wire IIRC. Therefor temp, petrol and all others will still work. Just the speedo wont register, and also teh odometer wont turn

Snap Chris! Mine’s playing up too.

AlexGS did a wicked post on Uno Speedo cable!

I wonder if the Lowering kit has anything to do with it

Maybe when you’ve found thread – you'll report it as good to give rep. – what goes around comes around M8!

Rgds,
Lewis.

Re: Instrument cluster :(

Hi Chris,

The speedometer is mechanical, whereas the other gauges are electrical. If there is a mechanical fault with the speedo it will stop working but all the other gauges will be fine.

Before you write the speedo off, have you checked the cable? One way of checking is to remove the instrument cluster, drive the car a very short distance and check to see if the cable is turning. That will isolate whether it is the speedo itself or the cable is at fault.

CM246 looks like he has the instrument cluster you want, otherwise check on Ebay as they turn up on there every now and then. Someone was selling the mk 2 SX type with tacho only a few weeks ago!

Best of luck,

Chas

I'm after SX type clocks with Rev counter really. I might as well hang on till I have new clocks and go from there LOL. Hope the dashboard survives till then LOL.
is it for me?

perhaps I should not have deleted the redirect to merged post so soon?


Kind Regards,

Sorry I missed this bit - your call Chris! Let us know.

would the cable turn if car were pushed forward in gear with engine off?

Hi All,

Hi turboned,

Its off the Mk2 SX .

chrisunoman - ring us if you get stuck fitting it!

As of today I’m between jobs - lol.

Guide and pictures of fitting would be worth rep – (even if I’m taking pictures lol).!

Regards All,
