Speedometer trouble...
Strange issue here...
Just finished my MegaSquirt2 install, and finally drove the car tonight. For some reason my speedometer isnt working. I damn sure didn't touch the transmission, and I didn't pull the instrument panel.
Last time I worked on one, they were mechanical... connected directly between the tranny, and gauge. Is there any reason that the speedo wouldnt register a signal? Like a switch in the panel not being on?
I'm about to dig through the wiring diagrams, but if anyone has some insight, let me know.
Of course, this could just be coincidental... the cable could have broken... but I really wasn't playing with the drivers side at all...

and my car is a bastard... S5 TII engine, S4 vert body, and a hack job of wiring - with the exception of my standalone harness, of course

Before I started pulling back the carpet to add that wire, I read that it seemed to be used for a buch of stuff that I dont have anymore (cruise, etc). I pulled out the cluster, and the speedo cable was just sitting there unplugged.
Dont know how, or why (the clip was still intact) but I plugged it back in and am good to go!
