Check the connecting plug on the transfer box.

It's a 3 pin black connector on the back of the transfer box. Easy to see you you can remove your centre seat box panel. Also check connectors behind instrument pack. Easy to access, just remove 4 screws, 2 on side and 2 on bottom.

Cheers

mine did a similar thing and it eventually gave up the ghost . turned out the feed to the sensor was rubbing and eventually wore through. fixed with two bullet connectors and some amalgamating tape. if all else fails i have a spare speedo you can check with. can bring to the next leicestershire meet if you need
