Speedometer Doesn't Work ..

I have a 2000 Damon Intruder Motor home on a Ford Chassis w/ V-10 Engine and Auto transmission. Recent, My battery went Down and Upon Re Charging it, My Speedometer Stopped Working. Everything Else in the Cluster Works fine, Including the Tach and The Odometer. Could It Be The Speed Sensor causing the Problem ?

Yes. You also want to check your alternator. Weird as it sounds our electronic dash on a Lincoln had us doing 55mph at a stop. It was the alternator and you may need to check your backup generator for clean power. There is some kind of electronic term regarding "Sine" waves, that apparently matters alot. Good Luck

1999 Ford F-250 4x4. The ABS light is on, and the speedometer doesn't work. I replaced the speed sensor on the differential. It is still doing it. Plus it shifts hard and won't go into 3rd gear.

Question edited for clarity and make some real sentences.
Question moved to model category.

See the first video, but by the sounds of it, you need an auto electrician with a pro grade scan tool computer to diagnose these faults electronically. ABS, Speedometer and Transmission Solenoids.

I have a 2006 fleetwood morgan 32fb, no maual, water heater needs element and no idea how to get into it

Hello! the engine in your Motor home is a Ford V-10 ...See photo below of heater core which is more ten likely plugged...Recommend back flushing engine cooling system...Back flushing kit (for DIY) can be bought at any auto parts store for $10...Referencing the interior water heater requires a manual which can be bought at the following link........

http://www.fleetwoodrv.com/owners/manuals.asp

Electrolysis is the likely problem which turns the coolant into large gobs that block the cooling system...touch the negative lead of a voltmeter to chassis ground and dangle the (+) lead into the coolant...Digital meter works best...you must read less than .04 volts...If not, back flush and add the appropriate Motor Craft coolant then recheck...Guru...Saailer

1998 damon intruder fuel pump issues?

I have a 96 which had issues with the original ford pump at 28,000 miles. It would shut down after about 200 miles of continuous running in the high elevations. Col, and Wyom. Solution was to replace ford gear fuel pump with an after market turbin pump. According to the tech from the western states that this is common with high alt. and high temp running. ( have not had a problem new pump)

Transmission slipping intermittantly

If the computer in that thing is a "learning" computer, disconnect the battery for an hour or so and "reset" the computer. Can't hurt... Also, make sure you write down any security codes for your radio or other electronics before disconnecting that battery...
