Dash display not working

Today I turned on my car and none of the gauges are working on my 09 Fit. The odometer display and the other gauges do not move but just light up and stay on. Also some of the other displays are on like break, ABS, etc but they turn off with the car. Luckily, I have a hand held GPS and made it to the dealership with out getting pulled over for speeding. The dealership has never seen this problem. I will update when I find out more about it.

The dealer said it was a bad speed modulator. They have it ordered and should be installed tomorrow morning. I had to replace the same thing in my 1991 Accord less than a year ago at least this time I do not have to pay.

I almost did not get my car today becuase when they installed the new part my odometer said 0. They tried to plug the old part in and it would not give the mileage, after the 3rd-4th time it worked! I hope no one has this problem in the future!

that sucks (out of warranty). Let us know how it goes...

It might help to ask for a "good will" consideration. Just asking might get you a steep discount or a comp'd repair. Afterall the car really isn't useable without working instruments...
