My speedometer decides at times to not work at all- when this occurs, the odometer does not turn either. The auto shop found speedometer cable for me but I don't think that my 1992 even has a cable for this- Haynes repair manual does not help much- can’t find it - and there isn't any good drawings for showing where it is. How can I tell if it is a cable or a speed sensor or something else since it affects the odometer also? Tired of guessing how fast I'm going which is usually slower than anyone on the road to be safe than sorry and get a ticket.

Hello,

The speedometer is driven by a vehicle speed sensor which is located on the transaxle near the axle. Here is a diagram (below) of the sensor location. Replace it and your problem should be fixed.

Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.

Cheers, Ken
