quick1300 Member 33 Member For: 11y 10m 26d Gender: Male Posted 14/10/13 10:29 AM Share Posted 14/10/13 10:29 AM Hi all Noob here . Brought a bf2 xr6 turbo in may . Clocked up 10,000 kms in it . Been awesome but lately a little electrical fault and was wondering if anyone has experienced it . Driving along at various speeds and the speedo just cuts out. Pull over and restart and she comes back to life . Tonight I flicked on the high beams , it flashes the traction light and then the speedo just stops . Doesn't do it all the time though . Will get it on a scanner on the weekend and check any codes.Any light on this would be awesome Thanks Adam Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/86516-speedo-stops-working/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mines gone (havent replaced yet) and it sounds similar to the weird problems I've had. Check fuses first as above before throwing money at car though.
