Problems that occurred in ONE day!

Well I was on my way to my friends party. On the way my check engine light
came on. Then the last turn to his block my hicas light goes on and power-
steering was not functioning properly. I was driving normal too. Mayn am I
pissed! And also my speedometer stopped working. Rpm,fuel, etc work.

So when all this happend I took the z home parked it back in the garage. I
checked the fluids and everything was normal. No leaks under the car.

I know there could be a ton of problems that causes the check engine light to
go on. What can I do for the hicas light? What should I check? Know what I
can do to fix the speedometer problem?

for the check engine light, run the ECU codes and go from there.

2nd...run the ECU codes. It could be something as simple as a relay or fuse that went bad.

Should be two wires on the right side of your tranny, that's the speed sensor if memory serves me correctly.
