98 is all I need Wink

Is the mileage counter still going up?

Open the drivers door on to the safety catch.

Drive of up to about 10mph

Does the interior light start flashing?

Speed sensor / wiring fault:

Speed sensor is on top of the gearbox, also behind the passenger side front wheel arch liner there is an electrical multiplug, the wires have been known to break at this plug.

Pop the speed sensor out & spin it with a drill to test it.

Hi there i just tried the open the door and that didnt do anything no noise or light flashing so i took it to my mechanic changed the speedo sensor and still not working so i spoke to him and said about my mileage count doesnt comes up now and again so he said its the hole of the counter dash board. So just wanted to know if thats the right thing to do now as i know there about £40 for the 1 i need. if anyone can let me know that would be great cheers Smile

on mine its the plastic drive gear that clips onto the diff. it has split so the gearbox sensor doesn't read it.
take the sensor out and have a look in with a torch. and look at the multiplug wiring under the passenger side arch liner.
don't think it will be your full dials at fault.

the millage goes up by your speedo. if you speedo doesn't work the car doesn't think its going anywhere therefor no mileage. and no stop light flashing with the door open

my mph gauge isn't working or my mileage display

that will be a mileage display problem.

if you was to unplug the speed sensor on the gearbox on working dials to stop the speedo working the mileage wont go up either.
