check the fuse for the interior first :rolleyes:
the speedo is electric and uses the interior fuse to work

so ergo the speedo's isnt working the ecu stops the engine working

check the fuse.

if the speedo isn't working the engine will sometimes cut out when slowing down, and u will get an ecu fault light up now and again.

Its definately the speed sensor, or the cable has snapped going from the gearbox. get that sorted and your problems should disapear!

tight check the fuses for the ciggy lighter/interior circuit
then the speedo should work again and may cure you problem
