Is the speedometer buried in the odometer?

What causes an intermittent speedometer in an 80’s car?
Early 80’s had a speedo cable. The electric failures are normally caused by transmission oil getting inside the switch and messing up the connections. Stuck needle, or bad connection/ component/ coil in the speedo. If the odometer is fine then the fault must be in the meter I would have thought.

Why does my speedometer increase when I change the speed?

What’s the legal speed on the M25 motorway?
Personally I maintain an indicated speed of 85 – 90, sometimes even a bit more if quiet, on the M25, M1 & M62 all the time and have never had any problems. I have done 20000 miles already this year virtually all on the motorway (usually a 20 mile a day motorway commute and one day a week a 240 mile commute to another office).
Where is the speedometer located on a car?
Where is the speedometer sensor located? The speedometer sensor is located in the transmission of your vehicle and is designed to register the driveshaft’s rotational speed. The sensor delivers this information through the speedometer cable and to the vehicle’s computer, which converts electrical pulses into a numerical speed.
Can a speed camera Catch you at 80 mph?
I have done 20000 miles already this year virtually all on the motorway (usually a 20 mile a day motorway commute and one day a week a 240 mile commute to another office). A speed camera will generally catch you at 79 true speed (sometimes lower) so 85 indicated is probably pushing it a little bit.
Can a bad speedometer sensor cause you to slow down?
A malfunctioning speedometer sensor can also cause a speedometer to act erratically, fluctuating the reading from one speed to another; even though in reality you’re not speeding up or slowing down.
