Wullie Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 Hi all, I,v just finished a rebuild on my 1977 DT 175. Its all going not too bad, but the speedos not working. I,v checked the cable and the drive all seems to be working the fault seem to be in the clock. When I turn it by hand it some times works. The thing is, can you take them to bits to check inside? Any advise would be good. Thanks Wullie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Wullie If you pull out the cable from the speedo does it turn as you spin the wheel? and also if you grasp it between your fingers you should not be able to prevent it from spinning as the wheel turns. Speedos are not meant to be messed with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted November 9, 2010 Author Share Posted November 9, 2010 Hi, The cable is driving from the hub ok, the fualt is in the speedo itself. dont think theres much wrong with it, if you hold it at the rite angle & spin the cable it works but if you hold it the other way it wont!! Do you know of any one that repairs them in the UK? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
