My girlfriends moms husband RLhas a speedo issues. It reads fine untill you hit about 20mph then it jumps by 40mph. Anyone have an idea why it does this or what it could be? Its a 96 RL.

Thanks.

Bad vehicle speed sensor? Is the ABS light on?

It sounds like you might have to change the whole gauge cluster. You can probably find one for about 100 to 200 dollars used.
