Speed Converter

Can anyone help me!!

I was driving in my RS 200 Altezza, when my speed dial suddenly dropped. Its was reading 0mph while I was driving!!. Could it be my speed convertor or my dials which has packed up?. Its happens quiet offen now. But all the other dials work fine!!. Luckly I avoided most of the speed camera's going to work. And would you know where I can take my car to have it checked. I live in Central London. I can't be driving like this..................

In the past I have known this to be the Speed Sensor, usually located in the gear box.

An auto electrician will be able to confirm this for you though.

Maybe someone else will be able to confirm or provide an alternative solution?

Thank's Jamie!!!

Just spoke to JEM in collindale , London. They say its down to two possible faults. Speed convertor chips or the speed senor. If it's the speed chip it's 250 pounds and if its the sensor 50 pounds. Well I'm going there later to have it checked out. I let you know on the out come. Thanks for your reply m8.

Finally my car's sorted out!!! :D. In fact there was nothing wrong with the Speed Censor or the Speed convertor. It was down to bad wiring of the speed convertor. Luckly my brother in law who works for RK Tuning, had a look. Saved me hundreds of pounds. Thanks for your replys anyway. Hopefully nothing else go's wrong now.
