The odometer is held in with 3 screws to the instrument panel, and an electrical connector plugs into the circut board on the instrument panel, unplugs easily. Then the motor that drives the odometer can be unscrewed and taken off. We're going to get another one from another Buick at a junkyard and screw & plug it in, and hopefully it will start working. I took the instrument panel out of our 92 Buick Regal, (took off the bolts (really screws with bolt heads) for the top dash pad and pulled it out, very easy). Then the instrument panel can be unscrewed (4 screws/bolt heads) and easily pulled out, leave the transmission PNDD2L indicator attached, or 2 screws on the bottom of the instrument panel and it comes out, and took the face plates off the instrument panel to get at the odometer.

1996 ford ranger Odometer and Trip gauge don't work but Speedometer works. How can I fix this Thanks?

Speedometer is ran by electronic sensor on rear end. Odometer is ran from speedometer. If both don't work problem is sensor. If speedometer works sensor is okay. If speedometer works and odometer does not problem is in mechanical parts (gears) of of odometer and has to be replaced. Can get used from eBay (search for speedometer or odometer, is one unit) or take to dealer.

What causes the Odometer to stop working but the speedometer to continue working on a 1992 Crown Victoria LX 4.6L and what actions can be taken to repair this problem?

There are two possible actions: 1) Replace the speedometer head assembly, because that is where your problem is. 2) Ignore the broken odometer and forget about it. The speedometer and odometer are one assembly. The same input that drives the speedo also drives the odometer, so you have a problem in the head itself.


What could the problem be if the speedometer works but the odometer does not?

Odometer and tact just stopped working what would be the fix?

Check the fuse in the fuse box; Also check to see if your speedometer cable snapped, this will cause the odometer to stop working as well If your speedometer is still working and just the odometer has stopped, the most likely problem is a little plastic drive gear in the instrument cluster. This is the most common problem with many makes of cars. If you are handy you can buy a replacement gear on Ebay for a few dollars and replace it yourself. Otherwise take the vehicle to an instrument repair shop. This problem usually occurs if you reset your odometer while travelling, it breaks a tooth off the little gear.


Ford e150 speedometer and odometer stopped working?

according to the owners manual this could be related to a problem with the ABS. I have the same problem and am looking for a diy solution. also from the owners manual the ABS controls the transmission , and my transmission is shifting roughly, which is what I noticed before I noticed that the speedometer wasn't working.


Why will the speedo work on a 1996 Nissan 200sx but the trip and odometer will not?

The odometer runs on the same electronic gear driven sensor as the speedometer so if the speedometer is working and the odometer is not the problem is in the "Speed head" (speedometer unit in the dash). Mine and several others I have seen break at about 40,000 and will need replacing.


1990 Lebaron convertible first thing that quit working was the odometer then the intermittent wiper speeds and last the trip meter. I checked all the fuses has anyone else had this problem?

Our odometer/tripmeter also just stopped working at 220,000 miles. This is an integral part of the speedometer assembly, and cannot be repaired. The entire speedometer must be replaced.
