Peugeot 406 1.8 speedo problem - Spanner
A mate of mine has a P reg Pug 406 1.8 16 valve petrol model with non functioning speedometer/tacho and other unusual symptoms such as the radio coming on for no reason.
The speedo transducer on the gearbox was changed as it was tested and was not outputting any signal (it is the fully electronic type) the speedo then worked for a few days but has now failed again.
I understand that speedo heads and instrument pods on the 2.1 turbo diesels can give problems (i looked on HJ's Car breakdown section) but I would like to know if this problem affects the early petrol engined models?

Thanks,
Andrew
