206 HDI Speedo fault...

  1. hi,

    I have a 1999 V 206 2.0L HDI,

    I was driving to work this morning doing about 60mph...
    I slowed down for a corner......
    the speedo did not, I arrived at work and turned the ignition off.
    the speedo sat at 70MPH when i finished work I noticed that the speedo
    still kind of worked but it thought '70' was '0' so when i was traveling
    about 30mph
    it read 100Mph...roughly... I got home and looked into the haynes manual but
    nothing specific to this problem i went and had another look and discovered
    that
    switching the ignition on and off dropped the speedo dial from about 70 MPh
    down
    a little to about 62 and kept on turning ignition on and off about ten times
    until it
    eventually reached zero....

    started car up drove to end of road and when i stoped at the junction the
    speedo
    fluctuated and wouldn't go under 30MPh....
    so it now thinks 30 is the new zero..
    until i go a little faster...

    Any ideas anyone?
    cheers chris

    sorry to tell you, but I had the same problem with my 206 a couple of years
    ago. The speedo had to be replaced at a hefty 4200 DKK (roughly 550 ?).
    Hope your price is cheeper.
    Cheers Peter
