Wired wrong.

Can\'t see any other logical reason.

mine does this too, started happening when i chucked the pfc on.

when im driving, if i go over 60 or so then the speedo does what its supposed to do, but not until then.

its a pain, because the odometer is related to the speedo, so my mileage is going up at a stupid rate when im standing still!
