Yes thats her name. She's a EX coupe 1.6 VTECH. Was driving down the road and the speedometer dropped to zero. Car kept running fine then the rpm gauge dropped to zero and she died. Popped the clutch a few times she restarted but died right away. Had to get a tow home. When my friend came over to look at her she started right up. NO check engine light ever came on.. She is still starting and running but still no speedometer or odometer. The MPH gauge jumps all over the place and when it starts jumping the odometer starts to work then they quit again. The rpm gauge has been working all the time still though.Three guys told me it sounds like the module thingy in the ignition distributer.
The speed sensor might be bad. I used to own a 99 Mitsubishi Eclipse with the same symptons. The car will start, but will not pass the 1st or 2nd gear, the speedometer will be at 0. I replaced the speed sensor and all the problems went away.

Also, Helen never lost all power. All my dash lights and stuff still worked.
