Speedometer

Thanks for this spot I had this problem and had to replace the instrument cluster cost me $130.00

Could you please tell me where are the speed sensor and speedometer cable are located in my car?

Speedometer not working I pulled the dash out and there was no speedometer cable, there was no place for a speedometer cable to fit in behind the dash "very puzzling" can you help. Much appreciated. :

I bought my maxima a few months ago. 1990, automatic, with about 140,500 miles. I bought it knowing it needed some work on the speedometer, gaskets, and CV boots. My boyfriend replaced the intake manifold and head gaskets, and in doing so needed to remove the distributor. He couldn't get the timing back right, so I took it to a mechanic. He got it running, but it ran very rich. He had replaced the gaskets again, and put in a new mass airflow sensor and new spark plugs. When I went to pick it up, it felt like it wasn't getting enough gas and was trying to stall. Once it goes into second gear it's pretty much ok. The gas pedal also sticks. I knew the speedometer did not work when buying the car. When I drove it home for the first time, after all the work at the mechanics, the needle shot up to 95 mph. I had been driving for around 20 minutes and I assume I was going about 65-75 mph. It hasn't moved before or after that. Why did that happen? My boyfriend said it wasn't the cable; possibly the speedsensor? Also, the needle jumps when I hit the dash.

My speedometer recently stopped working and ive been told by many that it is the speed senor. I was just wondering if that is true and how easy would it be to fix.

I just bought this car and the speedometer doesn't work and sometimes when I take off the needle will pop up to 40mph and stay there till I come to a complete stop. Any ideas why it is doing this?

So I replaced the speed sensor in my 1990 Nissan maxima and the speedometer still doesnt work. I took the gauges out of my parts car and put into my car and now when I get to about 45 mph the speedometer goes to the opposite side like 85 mph and goes down when I slow down and kinda goes up when I speed up and the needle will stay on the opposite side so it will say 125 mph at dead stop. What shall I do?

My speedometer doesnt work, sometimes not at all and sometimes it flips up and down but not staying on a set speed, hitting the top of the dash really hard will make it work for a few seconds sometimes, not always
