You wanted a horse, but got a goat. Nobody wants a goat....  Group: Members Posts: 2,861 Joined: 12-February 12 From: North Shore, MA Member No.: 14,124 Region Association: North East States   |
Any ideas what might be up here? Obviously the cable is turning. Is there a little plastic gear inside the guage that connects the two that could be broken?
Thanks John |

I have to say sending my gauges to Tim was the best thing I ever did! He fixed my odometer, changed out the crappy plastic lenses, repainted the needles, and installed the LED lights. Could I have figured out the odometer repair? Sure with lots of time and effort. Tim did so much more than I ever could have in a very short amount of time. I am cheap and it was hard to shell out the bucks but man it is worth the investment.
