If its the kind that has the roll over numbers, the odometer I think is controled by a tiny motor in the gauge cluster.
Good Luck

I'm not for sure on that one. Buick also had some that were nonmechanical, having only a digital display. IIUC, the odometer function was part of the computer, only having the display on the dash.

1308 Manufacturers Transmission whatever that means, Jay
Check for disconnected wire around the transmission. It probably has a wire from trans that plugs into a socket sending signals to odometer. Does the speedo work (show up)? HTH, sam

Hi, the speedo does indeed work (analog) and checked for loose/ disconnected wires and everything looks OK...anything else to check for? TIA Jay
