Antenna, Odometer , Cushion, repair needed Options

[Stef914]

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.

Yes, many years the sensor just runs the light and/or buzzer. You can follow the wire to the other end and unplug it; the wire will feed through its hole in the seat frame as you remove the cushion.

The speedo cable has a round nut that holds it onto the back of the speedo. Should just be hand-tight. The light bulbs can be unplugged or just slid out of the back. Take pics so you know what lights go where. The trip reset cable can be pulled out of the back of the speedo; you may need to squeeze the plastic where the cable goes through the speedo case. Or failing that, you can remove the reset knob from the underside of the dash, and unscrew the nut that keeps the end of the reset cable attached to the dash frame.
