Speedo Died!
The speedometer in my 2000 Ranger quit working the other day. (3.0 & 5spd manuel) Check engine light came on soon after. I haven't had time to get under it to take a good look, but a quick glance showed no speedo cable anywhere.
What do I need to look for...is it electronic controlled? Are there any easy ways to check the engine codes also? (Maybe you can direct me to some forums that dealt with these issues.)
Thanks...RB

There is a speed sensor in the top (slightly to the driver's side) of the rear differential. Easy to replace, and about $28 from Ford. Normally the ABS light will come on when this sensor goes out.....
