Message I've read other posts where folks talk about dashboard lights going on and off, miles not being registered right etc. In my case, everything seems to be working fine other than the above.

This started to happen about a year or two ago but it was rare now it's pretty much every time I drive the car.

It seems to take a few minutes to 20 minutes for the needle to start showing the speed.

It stays at the bottom (zero) and I keep tapping the plastic until it finally jumps to life. When it does, it's showing the proper speed so I doubt it's a sensor issue and more than likely a physical one such as the needle is sticking.

Anyone else ever see this problem or hear about it and how to fix it? I'm hoping I don't have to take the whole dash apart.

Thanks.
