My Speedometer is not working and I don't know where to find the speed sensor. Also how do I get to the back of the speedometer. Thank you very much.

item 15 on the chart that is included. you have to pull the ip panel out to get to back of speedo. you shouldn't need to pull the speedo if it's your sensor. Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know what happens.
