Odometer and speedometer not working

[Phantom25]

I have a nissan maxima 2004.

The odometer and speedometer do not work after the ABS light and brake light is on.

Please any guidance would be most appreciated.

Welcome to NICO.

Crazy things do happen when the alternator is failing or overloaded (short circuit?). So ensure battery connections are clean and tight and voltage >12.5VDC with engine off. With engine running, battery charging voltage must be >13.8 VDC (spec is 14.1-14.7VDC). Check the integrity of the wiring to/from the alternator and the battery to the fusible links.

You may have a problem with the speed sensor. So better have a free OBD II scan from Autozone and the likes, get an printout of trouble codes and report back.

i have solved this issue

you need the computer half of the abs pump.
45 used on ebay, or at a salvage yard.
you can find the abs pump in your car near the master cylinder,
removing the plastic potrion of the intake makes this easy.

its a gamble that it works of course, but the only alternative is a new pump for 800+
as the part that is no good is not available by itself.

you will need a star tipped driver, a 1/4" socket a small ratchet and alot of patience.

it took me (a nub home mechanic) about 2 hours to replace this.

there is a locking mechanisim on the harness connector that i broke taking off but seems to work fine all the same

id really like to express my anger at the number of posts about this specific thing that gets a "check your alternator and error codes at autozone..." replies.
that crap is NOT helpful.
