Hello to all saxperience members!
I got 1.4 petrol saxo, 2002 manual. Recently I have encountered 2 problems, probably linked to each other.

The First one is that my speedometer gone crazy, here is the video:

Sometimes it even goes to zero and stays there, get up a bit if I knock the on him.

Second problem, came a day after my speedometer broke, my rev(RPM) are not stable at idle, here is another video:

This one happens randomly, mostly in idle.As you can see in the video sometimes if I give some gas or start driving it would disappear(but not always). My car never got shut down because of that and when it happens I can fill the engine struggling to move the car until he gets to 3000 rev.My check engine light only blinks when this problems occurs, otherwise it is off.
I got and simple OBD2 tool scan and it shows me problem code P0200(link (http://www.obd-codes.com/p0200))

Does anyone knows what can cause the problem? did anyone encountered this before?

p.s - I replaced the fuel filter, air filter and oil to new ones.

With the car running what's the battery voltage reading?

I checked with my multimeter and it says 14.2 V - so that's normal(car off is 12.75 V).
forgot to mention I got 2 6X9 morel speakers connected with massive audio digital amp.

Disconnect the amp and see what happens.

disconnected the amp but the problem on obd2 reader still exist, and didn't encountered the problem yet, will have to drive some more.
PS - I was riding my car for over than 2 months with amp and everything was fine so I don't think it is related.

Until you clear the fault on the ecu the code will keep on re-appearing.
