mr_disco:
hi all my speedo aint working any ideas

so far i checks all fuses
took the clock out to check for loose conections
changed the little black box thing on the gearbox

im all out off ideas and dun fancy splashing out on a new clock just yet.. any trick out there please???

lol  :dance:

mud knight:
it will be a loose conection on your alternater :doh:

boss:
haha did you do what i did and forget to check the fuses under the dash?

Range Rover Blues:
Try a secong hand dash binnacle then.  The sensor is pretty robust, on the RRC it serves the cruise, EAS, EFi and speedo.  You can check the input with a multimeter, with the ignition on the input should fluctuate between 12volts and 0 volts if you turn one back wheel.

jnoshea:
Does the speedo sender unit on the transfer box dish out a voltage then? I've taken mine off to clean it, but when I measure across the terminals while turning the square drive, I don't read anything (although the resitance does change). I guess this is because it needs a power-supply from the car before it can function, or is it broken? When you test it on the car by turning the back wheel, are you measuring on the terminals of the sender unit itself or at the instrument binnacle? If at the sender, then this is no different to me turning it by hand (or drill) in my kitchen.

At the moment my speedo is bouncing between zero and around half the speed that I'm actually doing. The square drive on the sender unit is not excessively worn.
