Car Speedometer Not Working Properly by AlexGarcia: 10:41pm On Mar 26, 2016
Hey everyone,

I have a 1998 Ford Explorer V8 and the speedometer is not working properly. I've been having this problem for a while now and I have sent it to a mechanic and it does not seem to work properly. When i drive the car the arrow thing does not move and it stays at 0mph. It would work occasionally but it would display the wrong mph i am driving. I am hoping someone here can help me out with this. I will be forever gratefull. Thank you.

Sincerely,
Ford Owner.

plug a scan tool, and run a scan, if you get a p500 code it's possible the vehicle speed sensor is bad, you can also run a live scan, while vehicle is moving, and check vehicle speed, if that test shows vehicle speed accurately then culprit could be instrument panel. Good luck
