    Question Speedo on VP not working / not accurate

    About a month ago my dash got pulled apart and we sanded back the plastic layer on the back of the speedo ect to see if the dash lights behind it would come out white, MAJOR FAIL.

    Anywho, we took the needle off the speedo part, & once put back together & re-installed in the car, the speedo wouldnt work properly, EG - my friend would be doing 70kms while my speedo would be reading 30kms.

    How would i fix this problem so that its accurate? Im getting sick of having to guess how fast im going or snailing behind traffic -.-

    Default thanks for the feedback

    i have put the needle back in the proper spot but it just doesnt read an accurate speed.

    its not that the speedo doesnt work completely, the needle still moves.
    is there a certain way im ment to put the needle back on or anything?
