TomGaval Posted September 8, 2002 Share Posted September 8, 2002 Looked at the speedo while out for a blat today and noticed it wasn't working. What are the usual causes? It's a mechanical Speedo. Cable? If so is the drive usually unaffected? Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark H Posted September 8, 2002 Share Posted September 8, 2002 Tom more oftern than not its the right angle drive that fails , gearbox end and a pain to change ☹️ but you may be lucky(er) and find its the cable ❗ regards Marc. the more i knock off the faster it gets !

scooby dooby doo Posted September 9, 2002 Share Posted September 9, 2002 i had a good rant about this a month or so ago when someone else complained theirs had broken. have a look in the archive. suffice it to say that they brake fairly often and are a horrible bit of engineering..

Nigel Riches Posted September 9, 2002 Share Posted September 9, 2002 Before going grovelling about under the car or behind the dash board, does the odometer work, if so, it's not the cable, save your self some time in the dirty bits, give it a try, maybe your lucky and only need to remove the instrument, have fun, Nigel.

TomGaval Posted September 9, 2002 Author Share Posted September 9, 2002 Thanks guys, Odometer not functioning either. I Checked the cable end going into the speedo and it was secure. I'll check the drive then. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
