914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Broken Speedo Input Shaft/Magnet

Posted by: jrmdir Apr 23 2022, 10:58 AM

Hi:

Finally got around to troubleshooting my non working speedometer and found that the input shaft had snapped at the worm gear section. See below (from a Samba article)

Is this a common failure mode? Seems odd to me.

I'm putting a WTB post in the marketplace section but if anyone knows where I can find a replacement or a speedo that's broken for other reasons I'd appreciate the help.

Thanks,

Ron

Guessing something happened to cable and it torqued the speedometer.
