One more thing I did not mention (my bad). This IS a new cable.<BR>
<BR>
At any rate, the noise is gone now. If it comes back, the speedo will have to come out to be looked at.<BR>

>>>Okay, now you're blowing my mind.<BR>

You disconnected the cable from the speedo, at the speedo. And you still had noise. That's what you just said above.<BR>
<BR>
That proves uncategorically, beyond a doubt, that the problem is not in the speedometer--how can it make noise if it's not connected to anything? Now, if the noise went away when you disconnected it, there would be at least a remote possibility that the problem would be in the gauge. But I would view that as a 1% chance at best.<BR>
<BR>
If a speedo cable makes noise when it's not hooked to the speedo, obviously the problem is the cable.<BR>
<BR>
If you just installed a new cable, did you take pains to ensure the routing was friendly? I have installed cables in the past in my own car, where the routing was suboptimal and they made noise right away. Although it was a PIA, I had to just go back and rethink the routing behind the dash, and take greater pains to give it as straight a shot as possible into the back of the gauge. That fixed it.<BR>
