Ford ED falcon odometer repair (ED XR8 Sprint)

Hey folks here's me having a go at replacing the odometer gears on the Sprint. First go didnt work but on the second go I gave everything a good blow out with compressed air and now it's working like a bought one! Hope it''s of some use to you.

I had to get the same thing repaired on an EA I had many years ago - I took it to an instrument repair place and they told me the failure is often caused by pressing the tripmeter reset whilst driving, as opposed to pressing it whilst stationary. Interesting to know.

@GavwasInn yes mate I believe that is the cause, plus the gears getting brittle with age. Mine's working well now
