When it happened she engaged the clutch turned the ignition off and back on and released the clutch and the engine restarted, but the speedo did not, waited a few seconds, then we drove away as if nothing had happened.

She took the car to Dubbo from Bathurst on Saturday and returned back to Bathurst yesterday no issues but today different story.


I rung Ford and was told it would cost $120 an hour to just look at it. I suspect its something to do with the Speedo Sensor but I could be wrong.

Hi FroudeyBrand,

Would you happen to have the part number you bought or even the link from where you bought the part from Ebay?

Found these are stupid price from Ford.

Your help would be much appreciated.

Regards

Matt
