No speedo and gauges.

[AndyR]

Hi all, here's a new one. 

My astra g auto was running fine coming home from getting fuel earlier. It stalled on me at a couple of junctions and started straight away.  Then I noticed all my clocks were no longer working. Temp gauge sits there twitching.

Any ideas as to cause and a fix would be highly appreciated.

If the ABS light is also on then the passenger side sensor is capput. This requires a new hub unit as sensor is not available separately. Just had similar problems (2003 1.6l auto) & a replacement hub magically cured it! Hub £45 off ebay whith 2 year guarantee (don't be tempted by cheaper ones).

Test the hub with a multi-meter: should read 1 to 1.5 ohms across terminals stationary,  flicking up to higher amount when rotated as sensor passes peaks on internal toothed wheel.

Good luck!

Hi Mick, I did wonder about the hub on left front, as I have a feeling bearing is on its way out. Its the only wheel with a wire to it, as my car doesn't have abs fitted. I have had intermittent problems with the speedo since I first bought car, it would play catch up every so often. I will check with a multi meter, but I think it will be a new hub though. 

Thanks for your help.
