2001 Voyager Speedometer failed
Hi all,
The speedometer on our 2001 Grand Voyager (3L V6) has stopped working. The odometer is still counting, the speedo needle moves up from the rest position to zero when the car is powered up, all of the other instruments (rev counter, fuel, temperature etc.) all appear to be working fine. There are no warning lights on, checking with a code reader gives no stored error codes. I was hoping that the code reader would give the road speed under live data, but that doesn't appear to be supported on this car :-( Any idea what I should look for next? Thanks, Matt |

Is the transmission still shifting or is it stuck in 2nd gear? If so, I'd
replace the output speed sensor on the transmission case body under the drivers side. Bob ..

The transmission still shifts - so does that mean the output speed
sensor is likely to be working? Matt Bob Shuman wrote: > Is the transmission still shifting or is it stuck in 2nd gear?

Are you sure that the needle hasnt gone completly around the other side and
trying to come up pver the peg? HAs the battery been replaced recently or had a weak start? Hold the trip button down with the ket off, then turn the key on as you are holding the trip button (5 sec) and try to force the cluster into a self test Glenn Beasley Chrysler Tech -- Message posted using http://www.talkaboutautos.com/group/...kers.chrysler/ More information at http://www.talkaboutautos.com/faq.html |

The battery on the car has been weak, it was actually replaced a couple of days ago (whilst I was away and after this fault emerged). Any good ideas as to what this means? Thanks, Matt |

Does the self test also reset anything, or is there likely to be an intermittent fault that happens to be working today? Thanks, Matt |

need a scan tool not a code reader
