hicas uses the speedo cable, so if it's not working neither will the hicas. since the hicas is joined to the power steering, you'll lose that too.
my friend had this same issue and changed the speedo. everything worked fine after. -------------------- |

that is true wat old mate said but before you replace the speedo head check the cable isn't broken as well. i've had this happen to my r32.

most often the cable breaks internally - so the sender at the gearbox turns but the speedo end does not. check the gearbox end is conneced properly - the cable goes to the side of the gearbox towards the back of it
