[QUOTE="Richard L, post: 979718, member: 52972"] Arturo, Are all the instruments out, or just the Speedometer/Odometer? If the gas, temp, oil gages work or the lights come on when you turn on the key, it would probably be the Speed Sensor that has failed. I am not familiar with the Mazda, but if the 1996 Mazda does not use a Speed Sensor, then you have a mechanical Speedometer and the Speedo-cable is broken and needs to be replaced. If none of the instruments or warning lights work, then you probably have a broken wire or a cracked circuit board (most instrument panels are a circuit-board). Depending upon where the circuit-board is cracked, it might be possible to fix it, but you are probably better off getting a new or used replacement. ...Rich [/QUOTE]
