1995 Accord Speedometer Problem by tybum
May 17, 2009 (4:49 pm)
Reply
My speedometer quit, wife drove the car played with the odometer reset and speedometer worked for a few miles. Cruise always worked. Changed the VSS( vehicle speeed sensor) did no good, but since I change the VSS the odometer has registered an additional 40 miles and I am sure the speedo worked during those 40 miles I just did not notice. Speedo registers 20 mph all the time the switch is on. Since it worked and does not worked it sounds like a loose wire or connection but where do I look or is there another solution??
 
Sure would like some help,

You can find info on fuses in your owners manual under "taking care of the unexpected" Turn signals are located in the under dash panel on the drivers side.

It's not the fuses that are the problem; its the flashers. They aren't the same thing, right?

Signal flasher is located in the under-dash fuse box. As I recall, hazard flasher is located in the under-hood fuse box located on the passengers side in the front of the engine compartment. If they both are the same, you can put the hazard flasher in the slot for the signal flasher to verify that the signal flasher is the problem.
  Flashers and fuses are different but they tend to be located in the same box, either under hood or under dash. You should find a diagram under each cover that shows where the flasher is and which fuse controls what circuit.

Awesome. Thanks for the info. So all I (likely) have to do is pull them out, like a fuse, and swap them?

As long as both are the same. The diagram under each cover will give you that info. If one is 7.5 amps and the other is 15 amps don't swap them, buy a new one.

If your unsure exactly where the flasher is, or which module is the right one, turn on your turn signals and listen for the click. Most flasher modules produce the clicking noise, so they are usually easy to locate. An online parts store shows both the emergency flasher and turn signal flasher as the same part number, so swapping them out should work. They just pull out/push in. They are bigger then fuses.

To both:
 
I simply took the "Extra Fuse" that is in the fusebox (the 7.5 amp one) to replace the 7.5 amp turn signal fuse. We will see how it works. I didn't drive the car today, but did run the car for a second to make sure they were operational; they were.
 
Thanks both of you for your help. I knew how to check/change fuses, but didn't realize that's what it might take to fix it.
 
 
 
Thanks again!

Check the operation of your signal lights before using the car. I think you may have replaced only the fuse in the circuit. If the problem is still there, check above the kick panel. The first black flasher is for the turn signals.When you pull the flasher out it should say "turn signal" on the panel. Sorry, but I assumed that the flasher would be in the fuse box,.

I've lost both the plastic brake fluid cap for my 1994 Honda Accord and the knob that holds the bar that holds up the hood. Will my car be ok without these caps and knobs? And if not where do I find replacement ones?
