Hello everyone,
I have a 1993 Range Rover Classic, recently I could not reset my trip counter, so I have stripped down the speedo to rectify the problem. I have found and fixed the problem with the trip meter, but to get at it I had to remove the dial and needle from the speedo. I had to pull the needle pretty hard to remove it and, to my surprise the whole needle and spindle came out, about 1 1/2 inches long!
Since replacing the needle, the speedo is now not reading correctly. It is slow to respond in both directions and won't read above about 55 mph. Has removing the needle destroyed it, or am I missing something when I reinsert the spindle in the drive?
Thanks,
Rob
