1996 honda accord speedometer jumping Videos

i found out how to fix it.. its the speedometer needle. just remove cluster then take off plastic front cover and pop speedometer needle off with ur hand wedge a small piece of paper or tissue in very small hole on needle, then side needle back on for a tighter fit. thats all it needs because metal rod it pops on to, over time wears down plastic so it slips just wedge something in to tighten fit, very easy fix. hope this helps someone better than buying a new cluster...

it's a common problem at higher speeds at high miles with an older Escort for the speedo to do that looks like you were averaging 90, so i wasn't suprised my dad's 1995 Escort Wagon with auto trans did it on a cross-country trip from philly to LA and back at about 65 mph avg. speed...had about 130k-140k miles on it at the time started bouncing around Indianapolis or so and did it the rest the trip and for a month afterward haven't tried it with my 1994 Escort with manual yet as i only use it for local driving (102.5k miles 100 miles put on since i got it) i'm assuming it's a generally known issue though if you highway drive alot to answer surge2004, no it does not the trans still functions normally, and the best diagnosis we have is either a sensor like you said, or a slipping speedo cable
