[V8] Oh, Doh! And cruise...

Anyone have any idea's what would make my odometer quit on me... What a
pain!  Just as it was up and running the other day I thought I noticed it
not ticking.  Yup, confirmed not working... great.  So, I would rather stare
into my Miata's headlights for an hour than take the dash/ic out again...
but hey, why not!  My guess's are that a gear is funny in the actual
instrument cluster, or there is something wrong at the transmission.
Stumped me since I've touched neither in well over a year now, and I was
using the trip odo not two months back and it was ticking away fine.  Put
about 3k on the car since purchase and the odo worked fine...

Any idea's where to start?

Also, I can't find much on how to fix the cruise, but I started on that
earlier too.  The diaphram under the intake is hooked up and the switch does
nothing, no light, etc.  Where to start after that? Fuses all check out
right now I just looked at em yesterday...  Maybe a bad relay?

Thanks all.

~Nick, running a mile a minute..
