Well hello,

I'm sam just bought a corsa b 1.4 16v sport with coilies all round corsa c wheels an full calibra interior tax an test for the bargin price of 300 notes

Now here's the downside. My speedo don't work. I've checked the fuse an its fine but the guy who had it before has fitted colour changing bulbs in the speedo. Could this be the cause of the fault?

Also it cuts out every now an then I've changed the plugs but wondered if it could be my idle control valve that needs cleaning?

Ill post some pics up later of my car when I get in, thanks sam

It's cutting out cause the speedo isn't working, doesn't know how fast it's going so can't mix air/fuel right.

Check fuse for cig lighter, speedo works on same fuse. Happened a few times on my old ones.

If its got an after market stereo in, try driving it with the face off, some stereos have a speed/volume function and the wire for that needs disconnecting
