Not sure this will work but, here's what I would do if it is digital; open the dash, find the wires that lead to it, unplug it, spray with electronic contact spray, plug and unplug 4 or 5 times and spray again for good luck! Worked on '92 olds!!! Will cost about $5.00 for spray and it works great on any electronics, where connections get bad because of smoke, dust etc. Good luck!!
the speedometer on focuses is controlled electronically by a speed sensor located at the rear of the transmission on left hand side of car. it would appear you have a faulty sensor.
If the speedometer works, but the odometer is not working, there could be a fuse blown if the odometer is digital. If the odometer is not digital, then a gear is broken in the speedometer cable. It should be replaced.
Theres a speedometer sensor on the side of the trani try that
my speedometer quite working on my truck. seems like everything else works ok can you tell me what tolook to fix and any suggestions thanks
You can fix the speedometer in your 1994 Oldsmobile 98 by replacing the speedometer cable. If changing the speedometer cable does not fix your speedometer you will need to replace the entire speedometer.
Speedometer is ran by electronic sensor on rear end. Odometer is ran from speedometer. If both don't work problem is sensor. If speedometer works sensor is okay. If speedometer works and odometer does not problem is in mechanical parts (gears) of of odometer and has to be replaced. Can get used from eBay (search for speedometer or odometer, is one unit) or take to dealer.
the little gear that turns the numbers is broke and the only way to fix is replace the whole speedometer.
Check the fuses. Sometimes you have to remove and reinstall them.

The speedometer needs to work in a vehicle for safety and informative reasons. The causes of it intermittently working could be the lack of electricity, or a problem with the sensor.Ê
for the check engine light go to autozone and they will diagnose your engine for free as for the speedometer you will proobably have to replace the speed sensor
