[urq] Stopped Odometer

[Ingo Rautenberg]

Max,

I don't mean to appear insensitive, but you are always asking these
questions to the Urquattro list.  We concentrate on the Ur-quattro --
the original turbo quattro coupe.  I really think you should address
your questions to the quattro list:

If it was an urquattro, I'd suspect a broken gear for the odometer --
but I don't know about your 1986 turbo quttro 5000 -- but I wouldn't
be surprised if it's the same situation.

Sensor connection on car no longer available. Odometer was working before work was done to change brakes. Speedometer, tachometer function, the odometer does not work. Electrical sender to the speedometer unit.
