speedo prob after 5spd swap

[Raver157]

Hey guys, i searched for this because i remember some old threads about this problem but couldn't find what i was looking for so maybe you guys can help.

Just got my 5 spd swap done on my '92 coupe by a shotty *** shop in LA (clutch master cylinder wasnt even tightened all the way to the firewall). Anyways, the speedometer doesnt work anymore. It reads 0 all the time, he says the speed sensor was off a working car too.

Could it be that the speed sensor is broken? or is it some ECU problem? Thanks in advance guys. Oh yea and the reverse lights dont work.

we did a 5 speed swap on my freind's 89 s13 there was alot of harness swapping involved.. did this job cost you much?? they may not have plugged it in like he said... check your sensors.. make sue everything is plugged in and uhh.. there.. lol

thanks guys lookin into it tomorrow... the swap cost me $950 and they also changed my stock exhaust b/c it had a leak in it...

biggest prob was that the clutch wasn't engaging at one point b/c the master cylinder hadnt been tightened in all the way, thus it was pushing the unit itself and not pumping the fluid...

..yea ill check the sensors again... would there be any of these issues if they hadn't changed my ECU?
