Spedometer or cable faulty?


Recommended Posts

Has to be the speedo, the usual signs of a worn, or dried out cable is a bouncing needle on the speedo. the cable can't possibly rotate faster than the gear which drives it in the gearbox. I cannot see how the gearbox can be at fault either.

If it's suddenly reading high, that suggests that the spinning magnets have become closer to the aluminium disk which is attached to the needle spindle.

Maybe the bearings are breaking up in the speedo ? Sounds like the speedo needs opening up, to find out what is going on.
