I recently bought a 1995 chevy s10 and while driving it home I noticed the speedometer is way off. When driving 40 mph the speedometer shows 60. When driving 55 mph, the speedometer shows 90. Is this a problem with the cluster or do I need to change a sensor somewhere or how can I fix this?

if you just bought the vehicle i would assume that the speed is set to kilometers and you just need to switch it back to mph. if not get back to us. there will be a button on cluster that says english/metric.

I cant seem to find anything that switches it from kph to mph. Can you tell me where that would be exactly or are there any other suggestions? f
