Speedometer problem

Mar 15, 2007 3 Replies

I have a 205 1.4 Forever from 1994. Runs like a dream!



But the speedometer has stopped working at all. I tried to remove the speedometer cable today, and it seems to me like it's working fine (when I rotate one end, the other end rotates accordingly).



But when I attach the cable to the transmission again, nothing happens - the other end (cabin end! ) doesn't move at all...



Any suggestions?



Thanks, Hans Henrik


There is a nylon helical gear inside the transmission housing, on the end of the speedo drive which is probably worn. You can get at it I think by removing the speedo drive unit from the transmission.

I changed the nylon gear - and it did indeed solve the problem.

Thanks for helping!
