Any help is much appreciated. I have the entire instrument cluster out but a cable running from the speedometer to the dash panel. What is this and how do i remove it?

Thanks,

Mark

Is it possible the odometer reset ?

I don't know. From the driver's view, the cable exits the speedo on the right side, and is attached the the dash panel on the lip. It looks like a post with a milled flat on it. No nut, or anything I can find that looks like a threaded connection. I think the post had a little knurled knob on it efore I started.

your describing the speedo reset.
if the knurled knob is already off then just push upward at the dash lip and it will slip out of its plastic holder on the dash lip.

brant

Look for a small set screw that holds the knob on the shaft

It takes a small straight blade to unscrew said set screw, removal is pretty

straight forward from there.

I think this is just the reason many of them are missing. "What the hell is with

this fuching wire"... RIP..... Oh $hit.

You can also remove it from the speedo itself. The trip reset cables does come out of the speedo. All the ones I have seen have a white plastic sleeve that pulls out the back of the speedo. I was able to reinstall the cable and teh trip odometer worked just fine. YMMV

There may be a very flat nut holding the reset cable (you turn the end to reset the trip odometer) onto the dash frame. If not, just push it up.
