Odometer Issue
 

Hello,
My Speedometer works great, the Odometer has stopped.

What would be my next logical step to correct this issue?
Thanks in advance!

If you are comfortable taking clocks and watches apart, you could take the cover off it and see if it is something that you can fix. Otherwise send it to a speedometer expert for repair. I would guess a stripped gear.

often with the odometer it's the" tenths" wheel which gets worn out- poor thing has to turn all the others . As Nkaminar says a quick look won't hurt but I've found professional rebuilds are usually needed for odometers. An excellent article I have on how to rebuild a speedo is " Handouts courtesy of THE BEAVER CHAPTER, MAFCA Portland, Oregon. Article and Sketches by Gordon Fischer. Copyright 6-12-94 " let me know if you can't source a copy.
