did anybody have this problem, i have a 95 maxma with 149K on it and all of a sudden it stopped working. where can i buy another one or is it fixable?

 

Hey, If it's the same head they used in the 93 Maximas, you need a head because eventually the speedo way down the road will stop working too. Though mine in my 93 never did ( speedo ). It may start working intermittently here and there though.
Good Luck man.

 

Is your Service Engine light on? Mine would go on and off intermittently, but I also had a code 0104. I replaced the speed sensor and it seems to be working fine now.

 

yea my service light is on but its showin the code for EGR valve...and the odometer starts working for a while but hten stops again

 

95s had bad odometers. Its is common in 95 nissans. You need to replace your odometer. I have one if you are interested. It has 64,000 miles on it.

 

my odometer isnt working either stoped working about 3 weeks ago. This is the second time it happens. I replace the cluster last yr, now it stops working once again. Let me know if you find a fix for it.

 

sounds like you have a faulty speed sensor l

 

My odometer has been working on and off for more than a year now (1995 max). Are you sure about this speed sensor thing? I have no check engine codes. I've also heard of many others with this same issue.

 

could be speed sensor. mine like went on and off all the time. i tighend down the screws in back of the cluster and it works fine now.. i dunno

 

Screws in back of cluster? How did you access them? Did you have to remove the whole cluster? Was it easy to do?

Thanks! I'd like to try this out.

 

Mines doing it (again) too...

Damn these 95 odos..

I noticed my odo works PERFECT in the winter months, but rarely when the temp gets above 60F

I'm not sure how to resolve this issue.. I hate the driving it without putting miles on the odo (honesty thing), but the car will probably sold within the family and driven till it's dead so I'm not too torn up about it...but still

 

My odometer hasn't worked in a couple of years (stopped around 125k miles) the speedometer has never had a problem. No fault codes. I don't understand how the speedometer could continue to work if the speed sensor is bad. Mine's also a 95.

 

yea, same here. mine went out too. whats the best thing to do? does anyone know where the speed sensor is?

 

Interesting. Which screws?

 

My odometer stopped working a while back, it would work intermittently, then finally it just died. I ended up going to the junkyard and buying a new cluster with like 20K more miles on it, but whatever. I found a good writeup on how to change it out, it's not too complex, I'll see if I can find it again and post a link.

 

I am glad but not too glad at the same time to hear all these people have the same problem i have...1995 maxima odometer comes and goes. Anyone try these things i'd like to know how they work. thanks.

 

my 90 keeps going in and out throughout the day. i have to change the oil every 2000 miles according to my odometer. its good for the warranty on my trans though. ill keep it under the 12,000 mile mark for a while

 

My tachometer has been broken since 1999 and my odometer recently stopped working about a year ago. Odometer has been rolling just a bit after cold startups. But I bought a 96/97 I30t cluster with about the right amount of mileage. Hopefully I can fix both problems with this...

Anybody know any good tips on getting to the cluster? I have performed whatever the link below instructed in the past and ended up losing one of the metal clips that attaches to the cluster bezel:

I swapped out my broken cluster with another one that came out of a 97 I30t with similar mileage. Everything works fine now although I did notice that my check engine symbol has been replaced with "service engine soon" text. No biggie though. I can always change it out.

I took the old cluster apart to see if I could find anything charred or burnt (I don't have sophisticated tools). Maybe I will look into it a bit further when I have time.

 

Thanks for the update! Was it difficult to replace the cluster? How much did it cost you to get the "new" one? Any tips for where to look for a new cluster and how to install it?

Thanks.

 

Check the link I posted under this thread. That's what I used. If you follow the instructions, it is not too bad. I think the only part that I would warn about is the metal clips that hold the interior parts in place. After pulling off the parts, sometimes the clips don't come out with it.

I bought mine for about $40 shipped off of ebay. I know junkyards have them too but I found the prices to be cheaper on ebay. Just make sure to get the one with the analog odometer. Otherwise, it won't work on your 95 without rewiring.

 

if your speedometer works its not your speed sensor.

 

If it is possible to fix yourself and if anyone has had any luck with this at all, let me know, because a TMU = worthless.
