QUOTE(PaIsa @ Jul 19 2024, 04:27 PM) Just changed the speedo cable and went for a road test. I now have speed indication. So all the small issues on this thread are resolved: Parking brake light always on: Slight adjustment on the brake switch Vibration: Swap tires. Will have them balance at the end of the season Speedo: Change everything from the transmission to the speedo and got it to work again. Will enjoy the car and start to look for other solution to some other small issues: Some transmission oil leaks: probably some seals to replace; will do that this winter Parking brake light in the dash blinking: will look for the source of the problem (e-brake switch, switch on the MC, other?? Could be either one. Make sure the parking brake lever switch is opening to break the ground connection first. If it is, then check the MC. Either the switch is bad or the gizmo (a rod with varying diameters that triggers the switch pin) is bad. You can remove the switch with the MC in place (and it will not leak fluid). |
