Speedometer Stuck at 20MPH

Hi Everyone,

Its been years since I've posted, but i still have and love the car! I've encountered a new problem that has me absolutely stumped.

My speedometer is stuck at 20MPH and the odometer does not work either. It appears the cluster has gone bad based on the fact my cruise control still works and no CEL. I have a 98 manual transmission and a replacement cluster is not available for sale (even on eBay, all that is available is automatic clusters)

Does anyone know if the cluster from a 94 to 97 Accord will plug in? Or does anyone know a fix for my existing cluster?

Thanks!

The accord cluster will not work, you need an Acura specific one, could be your vehicle speed sensor also

Check your fuses first as it could be a easy fix.

I had to replace the speed sensor on my '98 5-speed some years ago when the speedo stopped working. I'm guessing you don't need a new cluster.
