Greetings from Munich again gentlemen, and the odd lady or two! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
Can someone tell me what's up with the trip odometer on my KM speedo gauge? Is there seriously no reset button? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Thanks! Mike |

Metal knobs through 73, most 74s I have parted had the black plastic knob.
Mike there should be a cable out the back of the speedo that runs down to the lower dash pad kind close to where your right knee would be while driving. If it is not there you will see / feel a hole in lower pad. If you find there is a knob DO NOT TURN IT WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION!!! It can and most likely will cause the odometer gear to strip and then your odometer will not work anymore. |
