Hi all,
I just got a replacement cluster from a breaker, for a friend who installed an ABS axle in his 240 and now has a speedo that reads 4x too fast.
I said I’d check the cluster was working for him and replace the odometer gear etc. as I’ve done that a few times before.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem to be working. I used the instructions here:
Like I’ve used several times before, connected up a 12v DC source and a 9v AC source to the back of the speedo (first in the cluster, then removed from the cluster with a jumper on the centre two pins) and both the needle and the odometer are motionless.
The original odometer gear is thankfully still in one piece, so there’s no bits of plastic jamming anything.
I checked visually for dry solder joints, and any components that looked like they’d overheated/failed etc and didn’t see anything obvious.
Any suggestions of what to try next?
Cheers
