I sent my speedo out for a rebuild because the odometer failed, it was a disappointing experience. Quoted $195, bill was $374. I'm also missing the little reset thunb wheel that pokes out under the dash, it's just gone, no one knows why.
I rolled through the classifieds here, hit Pelican and ebay with no luck. 914s aren't common junkyard fodder anymore. If anyone has one languishing on a shelf, I'd love to hear from you. Thanks, Dan |

That stinks - but at least it's working now.
Are you missing the entire cable or just the knob? Plastic or metal knob? if it's just the knob - I'm sure one of the usual suspects will chime in but if it's just the knob, other threads have referenced this: https://sierramadrecollection.com/cart.php?...=901+741+191+22 https://www.ebay.com/itm/165173810364?hash=...bYAAOSwHX1hicdC or: https://www.ebay.com/itm/333981299108?hash=...-oAAOSwI9Zgi2Tg |

Thanks, it’s a metal knurled knob. Dunno why I didn’t think of Fastenal or McMaster Carr. Will go measure it up.
Thanks again |

Was just considering pulling mine out, similar issue, the odometer stops working when it gets warm; makes me think it’s turning on sticky old lube.
You might wanna move this to the garage, or the WTB section. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |

If you don't care, I 3d printed one since it really isnt seen. All you do is drill the set screw hole, tap it and it works.
I'll give it to you free... lol. I guess you could PayPal me the 75 cents for the envelope and postage! If you are going original, then spend the 29. Robert |

I hate when I read a thread that I think does not pertain to me, just reading for info, etc. Only to find out that I need more parts and have more work to add to my list.
Where does the reset cable actually go? Mine is just hanging under the gauge with no hardware attached. Oh well |

Look under the dash... the cable will sort of tell you, but there is a hole in the metal frame.. the cable has a nut at the end of it. Take the nut off, slide the cable through and put the nut back on locking it in place. Once that is done, you attach the odometer reset knob.
