My speedometer quit working in my 2wd Cummins 5-speed Ram D-350. I installed a new speed sensor from O'Reilly's today. Now, the needle jumps all over the place at any speed. The needle will pretty much sit at zero when the truck is stopped.
I noticed that there is an "L" shaped part between the transmission and the speed sensor. Should I be able to move it? It is loose and I can move it all around when the nut is tightened all the way down. I took it out and tried to spin the "needle" with my fingers. It would spin at times and other times I had to press down to get it to spin. It sounds to me like I will need to replace this part also.
Thanks in advance for any help!
