    I have an intermittent problem with the speedo on my 406 Exec.
    this is an intermitent fault, when I am driving along it sometimes just
    drops to 0 mph until I get to above 60mph when it works fine, other times
    it reads ok for weeks on end before it has issues again .
    This leads me to believe that it may have a faulty connection or a lose
    earth somewhere....
    but that is just my (usually useless) guess work.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated Many thanks

  2. Hi Nige,

    I had a similar problem with my speedo.
    Garage changed the sensor and now it's fine.

    Best regards

  4. Hi Nige,

    here in Germany it was 34 EUR for the sensor and 12 EUR for the work (excl.
    tax).
    I don't know if one can do oneself, because I'm not able to.

    Good luck,
    Joachim Engel.

    disconnect and check the connector
    in some cases they melted on the 406
