Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

The digital MPH readout contained in the same cluster section does show my speed (though when compared to GPS seems to be a bit optimistic), and the odometer advances correctly, so I don't think my issue is the same as what I've been able to find here on the forums where people have had speedo + odo go out.

Leading evidence: 'same as what i've been able' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, the most frequently mentioned possible cause is 'same as what i've been able' (1 discussions; 0 report identifying it and 1 suggest it). No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hello there! I recently became the proud new owner of an '02 C4 Cab. Nearly everything on the car is mechanically very sound, with a small handful of cosmetic and trim issues I'm going to work through. The first gripe I'd like to address just because of annoyance is that the speedometer doesn't work! This being the analog speedo: the dial. The digital MPH readout contained in the same cluster section does show my speed (though when compared to GPS seems to be a bit optimistic), and the odometer advances correctly, so I don't think my issue is the same as what I've been able to find here on the forums where people have had speedo + odo go out. Just the analog dial itself does not work. Is there a common cause for this? The past owner did wire in an aftermarket head-unit, and I'm aware that there is some interplay between components there, but I would think an issue with that wiring would also put the kibosh on the digital readout. Or (and I presume this is the case) do I just need a new cluster or to sort out an issue internal to the guage itself? Thanks! Figured I'd ask before I start tearing my dashboard apart. -Arthur
