Sounds like you probably have smaller diameter tires then specified by GM. Check the specs for your recommended tire and wheel size for your car.

How do you fix a speedodometer on a 94 Pontiac Grand Prix?

If the trouble is the speedometer itself, you can't; but it could be the sending unit and that can be replaced fairly easily. If you remove the right front wheel and move the skirt it can be seen on top of the transaxle extension. If your speedometer AND odometer have ceased to work this is the culprit but if the odometer works accurately but not the speedometer you need another instrument cluster to get a new speedometer.

How do you turn back a speedometer on a 2000 Pontiac Grand Am?

Since the SPEEDOMETER shows how fast you're currently going, then to turn it back you would just have to put on the brakes, or drive slower. Your ODOMETER shows how many Kms or Miles you've driven and it CANNOT be turned back LEGALLY.

How do you reset the odometer on 1998 Pontiac Sunfire?

AnswerThe 98 Pontiac stores the odometer in the instrument panel cluster. The odometer can be reprogramed either by the dealer or there are companies that will re-program it for you (seach google, there are lots). Or you can buy the odometer programmer for about $1000 but its cheaper to just send the cluster module in. (not only is it legal to reset the odometer; its required in most states when you replace the engine. The odometer is required to reflect the mileage of the engine *NOT* the vehicle)

If the speedo works and not the odometer, take it to the speedo shop as something is wrong in the speedo itself. You can't stop the odometer without stopping the speedo.
