noisy speedo and bouncing speedo 94 explorer

If you get to it in time you can probably fix this simply by lubing the cable. You'll have to pull the instrument cluster out. You have to release the cable from the back of the inst cluster to do that. It's hard to get you hand up there to do it but I've done it on mine a couple of times. Once you have the cable housing (which has the cable inside it) disconnected and finish removing the cluster you can pull the cable itself out of the cable housing. I'm sure you will find that its pretty dry with a sticky dark residue on it. Clean it with a good soaking with gasoline or brake cleaner or whatever you like to use to remove old grease, dry it, and then grease it well. I've always used white lube in the past but I'd be tempted to try silicone grease these days. Reassemble and all should be well.
