This allows diagnosis to confirm the need of the parts being replaced. |
I rerspectfully disagree...Having ran thru 3 oddometers on my T-Birds (another similar ford product) my experience sez the danged things break internally.... theres a cheap brittle plastic part inside the speedo head that invariably breaks.... lotsa miles , hot weather , and resetting the trip odometer exacerbates the problem...... Go to;
www.instrumentclusters.com and they will elaborate. they also have a aftermarket replacement part that has higher endurance. its a no brainer to send them the thing exchange, and end up with a better odometer/speedo.....Removing the cluster is a PITA
good luck
