Hi, Has a clutch in it and it is not supposed to because it disengages in reverse. Peace, crigby
If your odometer is going in reverse, it could indicate a malfunction or a wiring issue within the vehicle's electrical system. Some older vehicles may experience this due to a faulty speedometer cable or a problem with the odometer gear mechanism. In rare cases, it may also occur after a vehicle has been reset or tampered with. It's important to have this checked by a professional mechanic to prevent any potential legal or safety issues.
