Give your speedometer and odometer a fresh drive link with the Pioneer Speedometer Cable CA-3101. It is a direct-fit replacement for the 1986-1995 Ford Taurus and the 1986, 1988 and 1990-1991 Mercury Sable. The cable carries rotation from the speedometer drive to the instrument cluster, where it turns the mechanism that moves the speedometer needle and advances the odometer.
A worn speedometer cable may show several signs. The needle may bounce, waver or sit at zero, the odometer may stop advancing, or you may hear a ticking or whirring noise from behind the dash. The speedometer head or the drive gear can cause the same symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing any part. If the cable is the problem, CA-3101 replaces it. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment details.
