#1: 206 tempermental speedo and stuck on handbrake light Author: Imelliot, Location: East Ayrshire, ScotlandPosted: Sun Apr 05, 2015 4:39 am ---- the other day i had to violently steer to the left, I never looked at the speedo the rest of the journey so i don't know if that was what broke it. when i came back out and started driving i noticed the speedo wasn't working so i switched it off and back on while moving and it started to work again normally for 5 minutes then it froze at 50. then as that continued and eventually when i stopped the speedo dropped to 20 and when up as i accelerated so it was showing me 20 mph faster then that repeated and got stuck at 80 and went from there so it went to it went as far as it could go and hasn't moved since. I haven't checked if its still recording miles will check that soon enough.
For the past few weeks my cars handbrake light was stuck on i just assumed the sensor at the handbrake was playing up because it had been stuck on since the car got a new axle and they put a new handbrake cable on it but when i was driving and switched the engine on and off it would go of for around 10-15 minutes then come back on any ideas? Brake fluid is fine
Would like to apoligise for the grammar im on my phone and it keeps repeating words for some reason

When you turned did you hit anything?
