Speedo Needle Not Moving....

Post by themadmoggy1965 »

Hi,

Just wondered if anyone could advice me. My speedo needle is not working. The odometer is working but not the speed read out.
Any ideas what's wrong and can it be fixed?
Thank again everyone.

Did it ever move ? Maybe just 'stuck' - Alex Holden knows all about these - he'll be along in a minute!! At least you know the cable etc is working if the miles are totting up.

Actually the one I rebuilt worked for about 1000 miles before the needle started sticking again. Not as badly as before but it will often continue to show anything up to 30MPH when I come to a stop. :roll: Not yet got around to taking it out and having another look.

Here is the previous thread about it:

If it doesn't work, you're not hitting it with a big enough hammer.
