Speedo with a mind of it's own

[ClioRXE]

Hi guys,

I have a Mk2 Ph1 1.6 RXE and recently have been having problems with the speedo not working.
Sometimes it will be showing my speed as it should, then it will just die and go back to zero.
then 2 min's later it will jump back up and show the speed i'm doing.
I was just wondering if this is a common fault, or whether anybody else has had this?
I'm thinking it must be a faulty sensor of some kind, but need clarification, and also need to know where the sensor is so that i can replace it.

Hopefully somebody can help, as when your speedo aint working it proves difficult to negotiate speed cam's!

hiya mate, i've also got the 1.6 RXE and not had any problem like this. Sounds like a dodgy connection or as you a sensor fault, tho as for what sensor and so forth I cant really help.

Take it to a garage they will be able to sort it for you.
