Heres what happened:
Driving to work after my last final exam today, my speedo suddenly shot up past 180 km/h, all the way to touching bottom. It went up extremely quickly, from 60 to 180 in about a half second. It is now stuck there, and I have no speedometer.
It has done something similar in the past, would shoot up and read high for a couple minutes, but always went back to normal relatively quickly. The trip and odometer are both working as normal however.
I am going home for christmas, a 3 hour drive, in two days so I need this fixed quick. I have gathered from the tech library my 93 has a cable operated Speedo. Could the problem be the cable, or is it likely the speedo guage itself?
