Some Suzuki Grand Vitara owners report experiencing issues with the odometer and speedometer not functioning, which may be attributed to a break in the flexible printed circuit behind the instrument cluster. Additionally, some owners find that the speedometer itself may have failed, particularly if the odometer is still operational. Common causes for these issues include problems with the vehicle speed sensor (VSS), a faulty speedometer, or electrical malfunctions. Owners are advised to check if the odometer light is dimming due to dashboard functions and to verify the VSS's performance by observing the odometer's behavior. Testing the cruise control can also provide insights into the status of the vehicle speed sensor. If these troubleshooting steps do not yield results, further diagnostics or professional assistance may be necessary to identify and resolve the underlying issues.
