ok not really...but i just recently bought a new speedometer cable for my 66 coupe and hooked it up. Ive messed with it every now and then and all i can get to work is the odometer...the needle for the speedometer just moves a little bit back and forth and i hear a loud racket coming from behind the bezel. :bang: Any ideas why the speedometer doesn't work? Thanks in advance you guys!

 

maybe its broken....

 

well gee......this is the second one i have purchased from npd...and screwed it into the back of the speedo and into the transmission...and still nothing

 

I don't know all the technical words to use for a spedometer, but it sounds like the "guide" for the needle isn't getting enough power to move it

 

ok...so i just got in from working on the stang...and it looks like where the cable screws in to the back of the speedo is stripped...anybody know anything else about my dilemma...or where i can purchase the new part thats stripped? thanks you guys for advice and your patience

 

well scratch the whole speedo issue now....im just trying to get the stang to crank now....that thing has made me madder than all heck!
