My best answer for you is check YouTube, most likely there is an instructional video showing all parts and tools needed.

Your 92 Olds would have different stepper motors, your best bet would be to shop your local car wrecker yard to buy a used one to take a part or simply change out with. If your worried about the mileage being correct it can be changed out, I believe it is simply rotational counter. that will snap in or out, but be careful with this... the housing might be brittle & it could break the mounting clips. although busting the clip is not the end of the world this just leads you to another fix that involves a twist tie.

I believe DR. speedometer can make those repairs. Check his web sight. Also you can have your local GM dealer parts dept. contact there supplier. you will need the GM. part number off the back of the cluster.

I changed the bearing because it was making a howling noise. But I also had issues with the traction control on my son's 2002 Buick Century 5 yrs. ago and the dealer checked it out and said it was the sensor in the bearing so after $600 dollars it did not fix the problem. So I researched the internet and found that there were a lot of problems with the wire that feeds the sensor in the wheel bearing it was made too short and when you turned the wheels it would stretch the wire and created a short giving the ABS light on the dash. I found that if I cleared the light and took the car to an empty parking lot and drove in alternating circles I could get the ABS light to come on. So I changed out the wire per the internet instructions that GM has upgraded to fix the problem. Of course I guessed wrong on which side of the car to do and ended up changing out both wires. I could only locate the parts at the dealer. I think it comes with the wire and waterproof connectors. You have to follow the wire back into the wire harness 18 to 24 inches by removing the tape around the plastic loom and connect the new wire. I think the dealer parts were around $40 to $60. Hope this helps.

Hi Robin, The transmission going into failsafe is a symptom of the main problem. You may still need an ABS control module. They fail very frequently on that model. If your ABS light is coming on and in many cases the speedometer stops registering then your ABS module could be malfunctioning and your ABS will not function properly if needed.

I'm not sure i know these work in a 2000-2005 cavalier but I think it's a different part number for the 1997. The speedometer itself might also be cable driven. I'd ask the gm dealership for part numbers of what guages you need to repair then order them off here it's a lot cheaper.

Zachary, Mine is broken too. I called Garmin and they want me to send the unit in for repair. They want $125. I could just about buy another one for that price. Have you figured out to fix yours? I am still trying to figure out a way to McGiver mine. David Wallace

Speedometer has to do with tire diameter. If you have or are going to go to bigger tires the Hypertech will allow you to input the tire diameter that you have and adjust the speedo accordingly. I cross checked mine I went with a tire 3" larger then stock and after adjusting for it my GPS said I was right on with the new speedo setting.

Am still not fixing my Avital, l took it to mechanic and they were changing about $350.00. The best way is to find someone who's know how to fix it. Am sorry.

On my Volkswagen Jetta there were two sensors. One just after the catty and one on the exhaust manifold. the one with the long cable goes on the manifold. By the way, I recomend replacing the upstream first and see if this does the trick. Also get one of those cheap ODB blue tooth code readers and the free android or windows app called TORX. Understand and monitor the codes as you drive. One bad code is okay but two is not. I actually cleaned the caty by removing it and dumping acetone through it. Probably wont pass again and it was a lot of work.

I can't answer this question re: part 10849. However, I will say that I was very unsatisfied with the Auto Meter instrument cluster. The fuel gage didn't work and neither did the speedo and water temp. We tried to fix it but you know what happens when you handle something long enough? You will eventually break it - and I broke mine. If I needed a new instrument cluster I would stick with OEM.

I had my mechanic diagnose which sensor was defective. Replaced it with the one from Amazon. Still not working. Mechanic checked the new sensor and it is defective. I'm stuck with a paperweight.

Yes it does. Mine had a bad speed sensor. You are going to have to get it replaced and repay the shop. Amazon will replace it for free but the shop won't. It is a pretty simple repair to do if you want to try.

No stepper motor that year. Is the truck running right? Does the cruise control work? Just the speedo sticking. Look for a new one. If the answer to any of the questions are yes look at vss sensor on transmission

Sorry I can not be of help. I took theOnix turn signal out of box and realized it would not work and returned it to Amazon, and searched for the exact replace on ebay which I found. It was from some junk yard in Kansas. Dennis Dunn dennis@growingchild.com
