Speedometer stops working

Whenever I go to an area with an extreme temperature change, (70 degrees to 18 degrees), my speedometer stops working. My odometer has not worked for about 18 months. My vehicle has 120,000 miles on it. The last time this happened, it started working again after a day or so, upon returning to warmer temperatures. I'm not sure it will this time.

Very familiar problem....you have bad stepper motors...sooner or later all of your cluster gauges will go out. cost 175.00 to replace all the motors to the new gen motor that will last.

The speedo is electronic, this is for sure a speedo issue, either have it repaired by an authorized GM electronics repair center or replace it.

Why are abs, oil, brake lights coming on, speedometer stops working, ac stopped cooling?

That's still under warranty, is it not? Take it to the dealer - let the manufacturer pay for the fix.

1992 Volvo 240 odometer stopped working but the speedometer works

There is a gear in the speedometer that is stripped and is causing the odometer to stop working. You can get a replacement gear from Odometer Gears (Jeff Caplan) 757-593-3478. You will need special tools to replace these gears, so you may want to take the speedo or the car to a speedometer shop.

My speedometer and odometer stopped working

Your speed sensor has failed. The vehicles speedometer is not cable controled, it's controled by a sensor in your transmission. It's a easy fix, but the new sensor is about $80 to $100 depending on where you get it.
