Hi well last week my speedo started acting up then packed up altogether, Then a few hours later the engine check came on and the car would not let me past 4000rpm. This is happening on and off now clears its self then happens again. I checked the codes on the dash and got a 33 speed sensor and a code 24 which there are three differant options.
Has anyone had this problem or no anything about the speed sensor?
Thanks

a common failing point on classic,just get another speed sensor from the breakers mate as the stealers charge a small fortune for them
Make shore you check what type you have best to pull yours off and take it with you so you get it right mate.

 

where is it located pal on the car?

cheers for ya time

 

when looking from the front its down on the drivers side of the gearbox just beyond the down pipe,if you've got your heat shields still on then you might need to get at it from under neth mate

 

no heat sheilds full decat wrapped so thats saved a job lol

 

thats good,you'll see it easy then mate,just disconnect and undo and replace with another and jobs agood one

 

thanks mate

 

does the speedo cable run into the sensor?

 

you will find its you speedo cable, or speedo delimiter if fitted, if your car reads in mph then it stands a good chance that its the in-line speedo delimiter, you need to check first before going speeding on parts.

 

Would this make the engine light come on and hit the rev limiter at 4000rpm.

 

so yours is an import then mate not uk?

 

yeah its the exact same thing that happened to mine speedo stopped working the check engine light and restricted to 4k, as i said earlier you need to check what it is before buying parts.

 

Yes mate sorry should have said.

Just seems strange how it does it itermitantly but the speedo just don't work.
