hi ,

took zed out yesterday noticed speedo had a mind of its own needle raced upto 80/100, in fact quite erratic

,but I was only doing 10mph in traffic

I've had a kph to mph chip fitted about 4 years ago as the car is an import , no heavy steering probs from hicas ,

do you think the converter is fooked or am I missing something,

I've stripped the fascia cluster surrounds off looking to see if anything has fell off but it seems fine

 

thanks guys

Im sure itll be your speedo converter as it affects the steering

Chances are the convertor is on its way out, some of the ebay jobbies were a bit pot luck, you could re check the wires, especially the yellow/green signal feed, sometimes they are cut from the plug and a connector used, or spliced onto the board. If spliced and soldered onto the rear film track, check for dry joint in the solder

 

Chances are that you would notice a change in power steering at speed rather than crawl

thanks groover & spin doctor
