Drive your speedometer and odometer from the transmission with the Pioneer Automotive Industries Speedometer Cable CA-3122, a flexible drive line that carries rotation up to the gauge. It is a replacement speedometer cable for the 1980-1981 Nissan 200SX. For engine-specific details, see the Buyer's Guide tab.

A mechanical speedometer cable is a flexible, spinning drive line. Its inner core turns with a drive gear at the transmission and carries that rotation up to the speedometer head in the instrument cluster, which converts it into the speed and mileage readings on the dash. Pioneer builds this cable to OE specs.

  • Steel inner cable: A durable steel core carries the rotation from the drive gear to the gauge.
  • Polymer outer housing: The outer sheath helps protect the cable from corrosion and abrasion.
  • Built to OE specs: Pioneer produces its cables to original-equipment specifications as a quality replacement option.

Signs this part may need replacing: a speedometer needle that bounces, wavers or drops to zero, an odometer that stops counting, or a ticking or whirring noise from behind the dash. These symptoms can also come from the gauge or the drive gear, so diagnose the cause before replacing the cable.
