car speedometer not working properly

Abnormal adjustment method of vehicle speedometer:

1. The simplest thing is to take the speedometer apart and use a small screwdriver to turn it back. However, there seems to be a special device for adjusting the speedometer;

2. You can connect a wire from the sensor and pull it into an inconspicuous place in the cab. You can't see it when you don't use it at ordinary times. You just need to pull the wire out and connect it to make the cigarette box big;

3. Then, when adjusting the speed per hour, you can see from the odometer that if you want to turn less, you can just lower the speed per hour, which will not affect the battery power.

It is recommended to go to the 4S store to deal with the potential safety hazard of inaccurate speedometer:

1. The driver cannot control the speed accurately, which may cause traffic accidents;

2. For novices, it is not easy to control the shift timing, which is harmful to the engine;

3. An electronic ticket for speeding or low speed will be generated on the road with the restriction sign, which will fail to pass the annual inspection.It is recommended to replace the speedometer in a timely manner. The speedometer is inaccurate. If the error is large, check whether the tire size has changed. If the tire has not been replaced, it may be caused by the malfunction of the odometer sensor.

Precautions for speedometer:

1. The speedometer does not work: first, operate according to the above fault diagnosis method, pull off the sensor connector and draw a dummy arterial impulse signal line, at this time, the speedometer pointer does not rotate. Then the instrument panel was removed and the circuit was measured. No problem was found. Then carefully check the instrument panel to see if there is any abnormality. It is found that the ground electrode of the speedometer is open, and the speedometer works normally after re welding.

2. The speedometer sometimes works and sometimes does not work: most of them are due to poor contact of the circuit. The live wire and ground wire of the speedometer are shared with other instruments and indicators; There are many sensor pulse signal lines passing through the connector, so it is suspected that they may have poor contact when passing through the connector. You can measure the resistance of the pulse signal line between the instrument panel and the sensor connector, and shake each connector by hand.

3. The speedometer display is incorrect: when the acceleration exceeds 80km/h, the pointer of the speedometer still stays at 80km/h and does not rise. It can be judged that the output pulse signal of the sensor is inaccurate or the instrument is faulty.
