Description of the problem	A few days after the ignition cylinder was replaced, the speedometer started malfunctioning. My wife drove the car to work. While the car was running, she noticed the speedometer needle was at zero reading while the car was doing at least 25 miles per hour. She turned around and drove an older car instead. Over the weekend, i drove the hyundai sonata around but the speedometer problem did not show up. But the following monday afternoon, i experienced this speedometer problem first hand. I noticed the car would accelerate from stop with the needle either slightly going up or not at all. I was at least going 25 miles per hour on an expressway. The needle continued to be stuck at zero until i had to apply the brake, and then momentarily, the needle would bounce up between 20-30 mph before going back to zero again.
