I think this is the proper section.
I was driving home tonight and had the cruise on when it suddenly cut off (cruise control) like when you go uphill with it on and lose more than 5mph...it disengages and the "cruise" light starts flashing. I turned it off then back on and it doesn't engage. I then noticed my speedo wasn't working. Tack fine, Gas guage and all else fine.
SO Speedo is dead. Now where to start. I assume since cruise system gets a speed signal in order to engage as it has to be above 30mph, it gets this from speedo cable at some point. Does this happen at Transmission hookup or further down the line. Point is I need to figure out where break/disconnect is...guage cluster or the gear inside the tranny.
Any thoughts?
