This is the situation: I just got my car and the digi speedo/ odometer/ dash lights don't work.

Then I found this: http://www.240sxforums.com/for...17786

Replaced them and viola! it works. I start putting everything together and it stops working.

Now my speed doesn't light up. The only time it does is for a sec when I turn my head lights on and then off again.

Possible lose connection? I've almost re-soldered every single thing and my fingers are starting to hurt from playing with the wires that go into the speedo.

Suggestion?

PLEASE HELP!

that sounds like excessive voltage drop accross a power wire. i would go over as many of the power wires as possible and see if you can find a weak/limp spot in the wire.

I'm thinking about just getting a new wiring sub-harness that hooks up to the speed.

Do you think that could work?
