Evening people,

So a couple of problems I need bit of advise on if anyone can help,

So I've got a 2003 EP3 which has just started giving me a couple of issues first off I've started having the speedo just drop from whatever speed I was doing to zero then after a short distance ping back up again so this has been happening on and off for a couple of weeks which I think might be a bad earth, also a couple of times I've also found that VTEC wouldn't 'engage' when I accelerated which I'm thinking that it might be a stretched chain but I haven't had any EML light come on (which I've been told will happen as it goes into limp mode) but now I've had an EPS light come on after a 40 min drive home from work, nothing fast just a gentle drive at about 60 mph, steering goes heavy (but still assisted) I cycle the ignition and it goes, so if there is anyone out there that could help me shed some light on what could be going on it would be much appreciated,

Many thanks

Morgan
