Odometer/Trip Meter

My odometer and trip counter stopped working on my Turbo S; speedometer works fine.
It's probably one of those plastic gears. Since I don't know which one it is, is it possible to buy a set of gears and how hard of a repair is it

Careful, if you break the very fine wire that the needle is mounted on, you get to buy a new speedometer.


There are several different gears depending on whether it reads kilometers or miles.

I just did this repair last week, after removing the speedo, disassembling and counting the gear teeth, I was able to find an .stl file for the gear I needed and 3D printed a new gear.

That is one option, although Pelcan also sells several different gears
