C70, S70 & V70 (Speedometer Does Not Operate)

  1. Turn ignition off. Raise and support vehicle. Disconnect vehicle speed sensor connector at transmission. See Fig 1. Connect an ohmmeter between sensor terminals. If resistance is 1700-1940 ohms, go to next step and check vehicle speed sensor ground connection. If resistance is not 1700-1940 ohms, replace vehicle speed sensor.

  2. Turn ignition off. Connect an ohmmeter between vehicle sensor connector terminal No. 2 (Green/Yellow wire) and ground. If resistance is not zero ohms, check for an open circuit in wiring between connector terminal No. 2 (Green/Yellow wire) and instrument cluster 30-pin connector. If resistance is zero ohms, reconnect vehicle speed sensor and go to next step.
  3. Turn ignition off. Remove instrument cluster. See INSTRUMENT CLUSTER  under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. Connect ohmmeter between instrument cluster 30-pin connector terminals No. 2 (Green/Yellow wire) and No. 3 (Yellow/Brown wire). If resistance is 1700-1940 ohms, replace instrument cluster. If resistance is not 1700-1940 ohms, check for open circuit in Yellow/Brown wire between instrument cluster 30-pin connector terminal No. 3 and vehicle speed sensor connector terminal No. 1.
