Re: speedo not working



If that doesn't fix it then there probably isn't enough force in the
little spring to push the needle back down. This happened to me when I
took apart my cluster to fix my odometer. Try positioning the needle a
little past that tiny bar before you actually push it on. Then just bend
the needle out a little bit and pull it over the bar. That should give
it enough force to pull it all the way back.
