First I would try replacing the cable(s). If that didn't work, I would try replacing the gauges themselves. Good luck!! :^) The odometer/speedometer are not cable driven, they are electronic

from 1986-1993. There are two small plastic gears in the gauge itself

that become old and brittle. When they lose a gear tooth, the gauge

will stop registering. The gears are available through Ebay sellers

and several online vendors. The speedometer uses an electronic sensor on the rear differential. It could be anything from the sensor, wiring or the gauge itself. The odometer may be related. If the speedo won't go, obviously the odo won't either. There is an odo kit available from IPD.
