speedo not working

Jordan537

Hi

my 98 1.2 corsa speedo has stopped working

was working fine earlier on the motorway, but not working now.

any ideas ?

Cheers.

could be the speed sensor on top of the gearbox, it's cheap to replace

I have driven one of these and it's safe to say you have nothing to worry about

im driving to Galway on tuesday, if i take it to a garage tomorrow will they fix it? how long would a repair take and how much cost ?

Just wait until your sister drives the car and then claim she broke it. Get her boyfriend to pay for it.

If it is the sensor it will only take a few mins to change it

lol it was her that broke it was working fine when i was driving earlier

Karma, it always gets you in the end :pac:

Jordan537

well she has no money, so it will be me forking out the cost of repair

George Dalton

Well if it's just the sensor the repair should be cheap enough.

found it! it was a fuse! 20 amp, so taken the radio one out and replaced it with that ( dont worry radio doesnt need a code ) will the local petrol garages sell a 20amp fuse to fit?

:eek:

No need to buy a new fuse, wrap tinfoil around the broken one. Be grand.

My first car was a 00 corsa 1.2, same car

That fuse blew twice when people used the cigarette lighter.
