An immediate, real-time display of current speed in a vehicle is essential to any vehicle. This is where the speedometer comes in—using either gears and wires or speed sensors, the speedometer is able to determine the speed of the vehicle and provide the driver with an accurate, easy-to-read display. Speedometers usually come with an odometer that calculates the distance travelled by a vehicle, and are the main gauge on the dashboard in addition to petrol quantity and engine temperature gauges. While traditional speedometers are analog with a needle pointing to the current speed, many modern vehicles now feature electronic speedometers that display speed as a number.

The main causes of a faulty speedometer are broken gears, damaged wiring, speed sensor issues, or a defective engine control unit. This could result in non-display, irritating screeching noises, or incorrect calculation and display of speed on the dashboard. Additionally, the speedometer of your car is calibrated to the dimensions of its factory-fitted tires. If you're using custom tires and haven't yet recalibrated your speedometer, it might be turning up false readings.
