560 SEL - intermittent speedo...

Hi All,

I have mentioned this before, but now I really do want to tackle this. My speedo on our 1989 560SEL is intermittent. It stays on zero, and then all of the sudden jumps to life and works normally. I.e. I start the car, drive around, and ever so often it would just read zero. Then I accelerate, and wham!, it comes to life. Meanwhile the odometer works perfectly, so I know its not the signal from the cable.

Possibly a bad ground for the Speedo itself?
