Reads 5-10 mph too high, then jumps like a mexican jumping bean. I kept thinking it was the oversize magnet on the 2-way 4"ers I'd just put in, but've been informed by MANY on this board that's not possible. Some say the cable's sticking & needs lubing.
Whatever it is, it looks like it's pretty common & so far a little mysterious.
I replaced the speedo & cable (got the speedo cheap) & relocated the speakers to boot & everything's worked fine since. That's ALL I know. So your (or anybody's) guess as good as mine as to what started the whole thing.
