hello to all, i am a new memebr and i was searching around for other people who had speedometer problems, but none were similar to mine.....

i have a 1999 automatic mitsubishi eclipse RS....last september the speedometer stopped working at 64,000 exactly....since then, the speedometerand the mileage marker do not work at all....all the other gauges work fine except for those two...i tried replacing it with another speedometer, but its still the same....any ideas on what can cause this aggrevating problem.....by the way, its a stock cluster...none of that indiglo crap

 

have you tried replacing the speedo sensor

 

Not sure about the auto but manual trans is cable driven well mine is 96 GST if it is try hooking a high speed drill to the end of cable and see if u can make it work if not prob a bad cable if it dose work could be on the tranny side.

 

my 95 has an electric sensor (420a) it doesnt work either but the dealer wants 145$ for the sensor and all the ones at the junk yard are auto and its not the same as manual

 

how much do you think i can expect to pay at the dealer to get this problem resolved?
