: odometer stopped!!
Daniel2145 08-21-2002, 10:49 AM The other day i was driving and i somehow noticed that my trip was not rolling like it always is, and still a week later it does not roll at all. ..... This is what people dream of.
Will it mess anything up??? Besides me not knowing when to change my oil.
NismoNx2000 08-21-2002, 11:14 AM Your speedo works though?? I was having problems on my car with the speedometer not working, and i noticed the trip meter and odometer didnt work either. Once the speedo cable was finally in the sheeth all the way, everything worked again.
cnynracer1 08-21-2002, 12:33 PM Daniel, my odometer and trip meter mysteriously stopped one day also, at about 120k miles. Speedometer works fine. It's a rare problem with the 200sx's, only a few suffer from it.
My old 200sx SE-R had almost 200k miles when it died, and the odometer still worked great.
Toolapcfan 08-21-2002, 04:00 PM My XE's trip odometer was screwing up only at like 200 miles and would quit adding up, but unfortunately the regular odometer was still ticking away. Why dream about it? It should be a piece of cake to make the odometer stay off for as long as you like. Sure it's illegal, but people swap gauges all the time and nobody pulls, the, (In a nasaly, lispy voice) "Hey that's illegal, because you don't have the correct mileage." :)
Serban 08-21-2002, 06:15 PM NismoNx2000, he has a 200sx, it doesnt use the cable for the speedo, its electrical.
Daniel2145, if your odometer started going in reverse, now that would be a dream come true! :D

Daniel2145 08-23-2002, 12:03 PM well how can i fix this once i am ready to sell the car?:confused:
nx2kracer 08-23-2002, 12:46 PM I say fix it now so you don't rip the people off you are selling the car to and be honest it doesn't work on the title when you do sell it.
Don't know how to fix the electrical one.

True, i realize they have the speed sensored speedo, but i didnt realize he had a b14, wasnt paying attention. Thanks for pointing out my mistake. :D
SR20steve 08-23-2002, 08:22 PM Yea someone else has the same problem as me (or is that not a good thing) yea my 95 200sx SE-R has the same problem, the speedo and tach work fine but the odometer and tripometer dont work att all, I called the dealership and asked about this because I bought a warranty but they said it would not be a good idea to get it fixed with my warranty because having a prblem like that will void the warranty. because the waranty is a 2 year 24k. So fixing myself is the answer just havent got around to it. Any help would be appreciated.

SR20steve 08-23-2002, 08:25 PM anyways it makes me change my oil more frequently because I dont want to push it so I figure like every 2500miles, nice having peace of mind.

Benny Boy 08-24-2002, 12:31 AM the odometer on my B14 stopped a few times before I took the car out of commission for the swap. I took 3 trips to Houston w/ out a single mile being put on my car! Can't ask for anything better, huh? FREE MILES!!! :D
