Yesterday while I was driving, the speedometer (and the odometer) suddenly stopped working. I was smoothly driving on the highway when this happened - didn't go over a bump or do anything that would loosen a connection.

The tachometer still works as well as other gauges on the dashboard. I have had this car for about 4 years and never experienced this before.

Does anybody have any ideas what this might be and any clues as to how I might be able to fix this?

Thank you.

Have you checked the electrical system? It's possible the fuse for the speedo blew out...
