    Hektor, thanks a million for this video! I have a 1996 Nissan Sentra GXE that had spedometer and temperature gauge problems. I replaced the speed sensor, but the spedo still did not work. Dealer had no idea, and could not order a cluster for this car (discontinued). After doing this, both gauges work great! Thanks again!

    I had similar issue ( slightly different Nissan model and year) I tried junk yard VSS same I tried new VSS same I check wiring same... I read somewhere that bad Odometer cluster can cause VSS to not send signal to ECU.. Because I had check with scan tool and ECU was also reading zero speed... So I was going to get I new ( used) cluster... but I couldn't find so I thought to open the cluster and take a part the speedo gauge see if I could find any faults and fix... (worn gears ,blown IC, short etc) found..... nothing everything looked good clean.......
    So i ended up replacing just the speed gauge and it works... Though now that I've seen your vid and what I learned from dissembling the speedo gauge almost 100% ... The loose screws were my issue too.. Because when taking apart I noticed that the speedo guage isn't really connected anywhere to the cluster expect by those screws and washers...So it must get it's power and ground from there...
    I did note this as odd design when taking apart but just didn't put 2 and 2 together til I watched this vid... Ohh well at least I only wasted 15$...
    Also like the banging on stuff method to test stuff.. I've tried it before on other stuff and it works but didn't think to use on cluster... now I'm just gonna use on everything ....thx

    hey. I got three problems
    1. the digital mileage display sometimes shows, sometimes partially shows, and sometimes completely blank. The display also has blackened spots.
    2. the km/h meter won't move and is stuck at a certain speed, maybe at 20 km/hr
    3. the entire instrument panel does not always work. sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes when I start the car, it wouldn't work until I've driven several miles. Or sometimes it works from startup until I've driven it for several minutes then it dies. Also when the entire instrument panel does not work, the digital mileage display is completely blank.
    Thank you for your time!

      @@rodneyyarbrough6524 I took the speed cluster out this morning. Used a Phillips head to tighten the screws on the back side of the speedometer. I blew some compressed air on the backside. Also made sure the connections were snug. Put everything back in and the speedometer works like a charm. I don't know which one of the things I did worked, but it's good to go now. Took me about 15 min. Hope it works for you.

      After taking the speed cluster out, cleaning and tightening the screws, the speedometer worked for a few days. I'm sure you know how the story goes, it stopped working. So I've resigned to drive my truck with a cluster that works 40% of the time.

    Hi, I replaced my speedometer cluster with another used one. The new cluster lights turned on and all the meters worked fine except the speed meter. Is it necessary to do reprogramming after installation for the speed meter to work? or once installed it should work? I believe the speed meter might be bad but I want to confirm if programming by a dealer is needed or not. The car is 2004 Infiniti I35. Thank you!
