Re: Odometer stuck
Have you tried resetting the trip?
have you tried taking it out and knocking the dials on a notch?

Re: Odometer stuck
Mine was a bit sticky after I took out the speedo to conect the cruise, I'm with Rob that taking it out and gently jiggling it could free the dials.
Re: Odometer stuck
Mine stuck as it turned 99999 miles. Resetting the trip didn't work, but a good hard tap on the plastic screen while driving did the trick. Otherwise I would try removing the dash & manually turning it with a small screwdriver.

Re: Odometer stuck
Cheers for advice, not a chipped speedo, Have not had a chance to remove speedo today, will hopefully get to have a look on Sunday 


Re: Odometer stuck
Let us know if you get this one sorted. My trip meter sticks but so far the totals are ok. My trip gets stuck under a mile or goes ok so I always know if its working or not.

Re: Odometer stuck
Well never did get chance to remove speedo to sort out the stuck guage
Set off at 3.30 a.m. yesterday to take Matthew to work, drove over curb to avoid reversing up the street, as we were travelling along noticed that the tripometer and odemeter had decided to start working again
