Hi jammer
I dont know about if theres a fuse just for the speedo i would guess its for the complete instrument cluster,
I had this on a 07 plate 110 puma once and it was the speedo drive on the transfer box that had seized up (not the electric transducer) it might be this worth a try if all else fails

passenger side of the Transfer box, between rear of handbrake and the gbox casing.

wires will be going down to transducer.

remove the plug (3 wire?)

8mm or 10mm nut above holding the transducer onto the side of the box

remove transducer.

if you refit the plug and ign on and spin the transducer you should see speedo needle move (it will take 2pax!)

also check the small square keyway in the side of the T box that the transducer sits in rotates. Cheers

When the transducer is off you can use a screwdriver to gently prize the drive out of the transfer box and it was that what was seized on the one I did

interesting... if it's the head unit, it's a garage job as the whole head unit will need to be replaced. the good news is the instrument clusters are about £180, the bad news is LR have to re-sync the head to the rest of the electronics in the vehicle (10AS etc)

you can pick up 2nd hand units from scrappys for £50-70 though and they can be sync'd the same as a new one
