Hi, im new to posting but have been looking on the forums for supra stuff for about 10 years now.. just never felt like posting untill now. Looked everywhere except under my car lol.. but my speedometer is not working and i was wondering if the speedo gear in the tranny is electronic, or do i have a speedo cable? Oh yeah.. its a 1993 Black with tan 5spd. 2jz

Electric. If the odometer is still clicking over, you need a cluster. If not, speed sensor or wiring.

have the same problem your going to need another cluster or a motor from another cluster to replace yours

On my 97, the speedo used to work only when it's cool. If it got too hot, it would cut off and the odometer would stop working also. This causes the steering to feel very loose because it is speed sensitive which is pretty dangerous. I even got a code that says the speedo malfunction.

I bought another cluster and it worked perfectly.

thanks guys. i get my new cluster today. figured since all my lights were out too then i might as well.. we will see if the cluster change fixes it. Good point ISHOOTSTUF! didnt think about that.

My speedo doesnt work sometimes, but i just smack the dash and it brings it to life. Haven't had to do it for a few months though, pretty happy with it.

update.... got my cluster. Pissed off that its not the same on the back at all. so i tried to take out the needles and swap them, but sure enough the damn needles dont fit either!! how the heck do i take out the speedo motor and is that not going to be compatiable either?

take the clusrter appart the motors will work as for the needles it depends wat year cluster it is. 92-94 have white needles and 95-96 have red.

ok well i decided to take the darn thing apart. took out the motor from the new cluster. went to take out the old one and once again, the motor doesnt bolt in the same way so i didnt even bother taking it out. plust the ODO screen was smaller on the new one. It must be from an OBDII SC400 Auto, and i have a 93 SC300 5spd.. this is driving me crazy. can i buy a motor somewhere? or am i SOL untill i find the correct cluster

sc5sdanny

im not sure im stuck to the needles from the 95-96 dont light up with the board from the 92-94 and the dealer doesnt sell the cluster in parts u have to pay the 800 bucks for the whole thing.
