84 Vanagon Two weeks ago I lost my dash lights and coolant gauge. Two days ago I lost my speedometer and odometer at the same time. Over 200 miles, they flickered on briefly numerous times, meaning I saw the speedometer needle twitch, and cumulatively over the 200 miles the odometer logged about 2. I've already examined the speedo unit and can find nothing wrong. Ideas..... 4 weeks ago I pushed the oxygen sensor reset button Yesterday I sealed my leaky windshield..... Today I ripped apart the dash looking for electrical troubles. There was lots of corrosion on the ground connections behind the fuse panel. Once I cleaned that up, the dash lights came back. But not the speedometer or odometer. Could there be some simple thing wrong with the cable or its connections? How can I tell? Steve E Vanagon 84 Lansing Mich
