Having my Speedometer and trip Odometer fixed need advice
#1

Both my Speedometer and Trip Odometer are broken and have to have my mechanic do the job. He sends the units to a place in California that he has been using for 30 years. As the dash will be somewhat taken apart are there any other things I should have him do in the way of preventative maintenance? Polish connections, soldier electrical points etc?

 

Taking it in on Thursday so fast response's would be appreciated.

 

Thanks

Clean the nuts that connect the gauges to the PC board, replace all the warning bulbs, do the reflectors for the instrument lights and replace the bulbs. When you reinstall, put a thin layer of lube on the two connectors so if there is a next time, they will be easier to remove. That's all I did and everything worked out fine.

he is probably sending it to either palo alto speedo or north hollywood speedo.  i've used both with great success.

 

do NOT turn the key on while the cluster is out!  if you do, you will have to reset the DME.
