It's raining cats and dogs today, not sure if it's just coincidence or possibly part of the problem.



However, my speedometer is bouncing like crazy.



Is this common? Easy fix?



Help!!!

Bouncing speedometer came back again today, went away 20 mins into the drive.



No rain.



Anyone have any ideas what this could be?



Thanks...

Yeah.



So, what should I be replacing? The gauge itself or something else?



Thanks!

I have the same problem... It comes and goes... a lot of the time if I am driving under 20mph the speedometer does not register, or jumps. When my speedometer registers 0 mph... So does my PowerFC. So, in my case I think the problem is either the speed sending unit, or wiring.
