Bought a 96 Maxima GLE a few months ago from a used car dealer. After about
700 miles the odometer and tripometer stopped working. Every once in a while it will rack up a few miles but for the most part they're dead.
Two questions:
1) Should I be suspicious about the coincidence of this occurring after buying the car from a used car dealer? Any possible tampering?
2) Any guesses of what the problem is? Internal to the speedometer unit? It there a mechanical cable that goes from the transmission to under the dash? Is it all electronic? The speedometer works fine. Just the odometer and tripometer that don't work.
Thanks,
Steve
