Nissan do this, it means you have the special million dollar winning car,

Nah, but unscrew the 4 screws in the speedo, pull it out, check the speedo cable is plugged in properly, if it is, then check the sensor at the other end(gearbox end is still working, follow the cable up, sometimes they snap, if it's buggered just get a new speedo cable, if it's not, then you might need to take it to a mechanic, something must be stopping it from spinning)

If the speedo and P/S are still working, then it shouldn't be a problem with the cable.

The Japanese seem less opposed to fiddling odometers (winding them back). It's possible some sort of damage was done that prevents the odometer going past 100k.

I have the same problem as mine started to play up at 75000kms and fixed itself.

It has now hit 80000kms and wont budge, even the trip meter has stopped.

So I pulled it apart today and had a look seemed easy enough but I couldn't find anything wrong so I just pushed the odometer numbers gently past 80000 with a small screwdriver.

Dunno if this has worked yet as my radiator is out and I cant drive it.

Will let you know as soon as I do tho.

On a side note my boost guage seems to be playing up.

When Im idling the guage reads 0 pressure not vacuum, but when I start to boost it it climbs up.

Also noticed that when the car is off it falls down to 7 deg vacuum.

Any ideas????

I have exactly the same problem.......

the ODO meter stop when reaching 89999kms

yes, four 9 and doesn't go past the 90000kms!

and the trip meter also stopped........

I opened it up and can see nothing wrong

went to wrecker to buy a used one.

realise that the one I had......doesn't have the P, R, N, D, 1, 2......at the centre......

so I am guessing it is for a manual car

and now maybe I could understand why the O/D light doesn't turn on

so what's the reason behind the not running odometer?

i heard that when your car is moving, you shouldn't reset the trip meter..........but I need confirmation about that lol

and also I think it stopped before I reset -_-"

This is what we were concerned about at 5 mins to midnight on 31/12/99 eh?

Had an N13 that did the same thing, and after about 2 months, the odo moved on. Might have been after speed hump rather than a chicane.... Silly isn't it!

Rubber Mallet? I'll LOL if that works!

the car's odometer just stopped in shock when it realised it was the second time it had clicked over 100,000klm :( I guess they wound it back a fair way.

no idea how to fix it but it is pretty common with these cars

pull it apart and look for the cogs from memory there is one white one and severl black ones, check to see if they are all lined up and "meshing" nicely in there, also make sure no damage to the shaft and that everything is plugged in! Gl hame.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
