I have a 84 Eldorado and the dash readout shows 0 mph when driving, every once and awhile it will read out the mileage. The instant fuel readout is also out, I am able to swith from MPH to KPH but still no readout while traveling. Any help out there?

There is a sensor on one of the wheels or one of the driveshafts that tells the dashboard computer what speed the car is travelling. It has come unplugged or has failed. Im not sure where it is located so this may not be much help. Your ododmeter should not be working either. Corvette used a regular speedometer cable and the sensor was in the dash. See if the Eldo does it that way also. Pray that you have a bad speedo cable. Easy cheap fix in that case.
