Circuit Test (Eclipse & Mirage)

  1. Remove instrument cluster. See INSTRUMENT CLUSTER  under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. Disconnect instrument cluster harness connector. Turn ignition on. Connect voltmeter between ground and instrument cluster harness-side connector terminal No. 36 (Yellow/White wire) on Eclipse or terminal No. 51 (Yellow wire) on Mirage. Move vehicle forward and backward. If voltmeter reads 4.5 volts or greater, go to step  4. If voltage reading is not as specified, replace speedometer assembly.
  2. Connect voltmeter between ground and instrument cluster harness-side connector terminal No. 10 (Black/White wire) on Eclipse or terminal No. 42 (Black/White wire) on Mirage. Turn ignition on. Move vehicle forward and backward. If battery voltage is present, replace speedometer assembly. If battery voltage is not present, go to step  4.
  3. On Mirage, check continuity between ground and instrument cluster harness-side connector terminal No. 11 (Black wire). If continuity is present, go to next step. If continuity is not present, check circuit between ground and instrument cluster. See WIRING DIAGRAMS . Repair as necessary.
  4. Check VSS. See VEHICLE SPEED SENSOR (VSS) . Replace as necessary. If sensor is okay, check harness connectors to instrument cluster. Repair as necessary. If connectors are okay, check circuit between power supply and instrument cluster. See WIRING DIAGRAMS . Repair as necessary.
