The speedometer on my ram does not work the needle stays at zero and doesn't move. What could be the problem?

 

AAAARRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHH. what year ?

early models had a gear in the transmission. later years have 2 speed sensors. the one in the tailshaft of the trans/t-case is called the speed sensor. the one on the top of the rear pumpkin is the rear wheel abs sensor. both figure in. check elec connector on each for mud or damage. sometimes these set of brake and abs lights on dash.

 

Same problem on my 99. Havent figured it out yet.

douse yours work after a certan speed cause on my 99 it didnt work from 0km/h-60km/h and its the transmition sencer gone so i put a new one in and its all good

 

No, it doesnt work at all as well as my odometer. I have a code for speed sensor a and even though I dont know which one that is I replaced them both and it still doesnt work. I believe the piece that plugs into the axle sensor is damaged but I am having a hard time finding a replacement.

 

would the one out of a 1500 ram van work for ya cause i just got one for scrap and im pulling the motor cause its rebuilt and my dodge needs a new one lol so i have the rest of the parts laying around

 

It might. Could you take a pic of it so I can see the plug. I think it will unless there is a dana 60 under there. thank you

 

yup next time im out at it i will

 

My 99 doesnt read until 40-45 mph and both the brake and the abs lights are lit
