Only one way to find out but sounds like it could be a sensor that's faulty, the cluster might be f#%*ed though

d/c batt. took cluster out & removed plastic glass & moved speed needle back to zero.. reconnected and all is working ok. so moving needle back to zero or d/c battery fixed it for me for now!!

It will be the plastic needle is loose on the metal shaft, common problem.

A tiny drop of superglue in the right place is the fix Wink
