Hi there,

I've got some newbie / rookie questions for you all (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

1- I have the antenna key but I can't figure out how to lift it... I can twist it around but it still remains down ...ideas ?

2- my odometer & trippometer are not working. Was gonna pull the gauge out myself and send for repair, but before I do that is it easy to disconnect all the cable on the back without any tools ? ( if even doable to taking it apart this way )

3- I was gonna replace the cushion seat but upon lifting it I notice a cable attached to it, ideas ?

thanks

S.

The antenna key doesn't twist, you tilt it to create friction and pull up like a 'catch'

Sorry to hear the odometer/trip stopped that's odd--one thing to note, never ever set the trip odometer while moving, that's how they break---try North Hollywood Speedometer and they should be able to get you fixed up easily

The 'cord' that hangs down from the cushion is/was the old starter interupt thing, a total PITA, leave them disconnected, I think it detected that you were in fact sitting in the seats to be able to crank the engine or something like that a crude "saftey" feature that everyone typically disconnects.
