    1955- Speedometer head making noise now

    It never ends, Now the speedometer head is making a grinding noise and jumps to 80mph while doing 35mph then goes silent for a while and acts normal. Going to disconnect the cable from the head and lube.

    1997 Thunderbird LX w/4.6L - Speedometer, wipers, radio stopped working

    My 1997 T-bird had been sitting in the driveway for about 3 months. I've recharged the battery and cleaned the interior due to mildew. I've driven it a few times just to keep it running. Recently, when I went for a drive, the speedometer and radio were not working. When I got back home, I...
