The 'thing' that doesn't work is called an odometer. That will help in your search.
A common failure. |

Thanks for your "clarification" (odometer) and suggestion that I try the "search function". I'm embarrassed to admit it, but I can't find the 'search function'. This is the first time I have used this website. Can you tell me how to find this and on what website page? Thanks!

What part of Texas???
I had a shop in Houston refurbish mine, plus replace the odometer gear that was starting to act up. Same day service. Tony.

I bought the replacement gear for under $30 and replaced it myself. Go check out
http://www.rennbay.com/odometer-gears-c-32.html and also check out their tutorial page. http://www.rennbay.com/odotutorial.html It's written for a 928, but once you get the speedo out of the dash, the instructions are the same. I also sent an email when I had a question and they responded right away. Give it a try. It took me about an hour because I was taking pictures. It's simple really. Shoot me an email if you have any questions. ~Steve s_chev@yahoo.com |

To Search,
Go to the Blue toolbar (above the "Post Reply" button), to the word search. Type in "odometer". You'll get a long list of threads about your subject. |

Several threads I've read said it's worth sending it to someone, even if you're a DIY. North Hollywood Speedometer. $100, cleaned, repaired, dial repainted and calibrated.
