[Vwdiesel] odometer stopped working

[Bryan Belman]

Dave, super super no no on older speedo's......pushing the trip reset.
Nick, I never removed the cluser on my 92 Eco Jetta, it did look to be a challange, but hopefully not.  GOOD idea about losing the speedo cable from trans. !!  I had 88 Cabriolet for almost 10 years, the dash seems to be almost the same.

I don't think it is too hard to remove and fix the odometer.  I did it at a hotel one morning in a Cabriolet I had.  The MKII Jetta may be set up a little different, but I think the cluster/dash setup is actually pretty similar to the Cabriolet.  The worst part is unhooking the speedo cable, with getting your hand back there.  I don't know why I never tried this before, but you could likely unscrew the cable from the transmission and pull it in towards the car some to get extra room.


Fixing the odometer is usually as simple as a well-placed drop of super glue once it is out and apart.  Mine broke when I pushed the mileage reset while driving out of a gas station.

From what I have read it is a major pain to remove the instrument cluster on
a MKII Jetta.  Is this correct?  My odometer stopped working at 274313
miles. I would like to get it working but don't have much time on my hands
since product season is getting close and I have a ton of things I need to
do before I get super busy with produce.

Thanks,

Nick
