Thanks. Really useful.

UPDATE: I ordered another cable. Same part number but the version which came had a black plastic end rather than white at the clock end. This one’s connector was much further out (like the photo above) and connected sweetly and I now have a clear Speedo reading. I did manage to misplace the...

Thanks @resto_d1 - appreciate it

Might sound a dumb question, but what am I checking for? 🤣

Hi Guys, I've experienced this only in the past few days, and other than describing it as a 'clunk' I don't know what to look for. I appear to be getting a clunk every now and again, fairly violent, from what sounds like the transfer box. This just happened to me on the way home tonight where...

Trying to do some more research into this, I’ve come across this image showing the same model of cable I have - PRC6022 The Speedo end of the cable in this photo comes out further than the end of the white plastic connector, but the cable I have it sits inside it about half an inch and won’t...

“Owning up” is a 7 day ban @julianf 😂 Light stalk, indicator stalk are both brand new (washer stalk is not, but I had assumed this was totally unrelated to lighting). Fuse box is very ropey - glass fuses, spliced wires etc Wiring on the light is also a mishmash of wago connectors from...

Great info, thanks!

I can’t pull the cable out enough because of the other end which has a stopper type thing. Maybe that can be moved or removed?

Definitely an option

This is the one I bought, which seems to be the same as the old one (albeit not snapped) https://www.lrparts.net/prc6022-defender-speedo-cable-for-right-and-left-hand-drive-models-up-to-1998.html

Yes, it clicks in nicely when attached to the Speedo clock but the needle never moves. I’ve also tried spinning the cable with a drill from the other end and the Speedo doesn’t move

I had meant to post this last week when I had this situation. I have LED headlights fitted to my 1991 90. The issue I had (may still have) is that the drivers side full beam didn’t come on when the stalk is pushed in, and the drivers light actually went dimmer. Also, on flashing (pulling...

I have purchased a new Speedo cable due to the old one having a snapped plastic clip and the Speedo needle bouncing around. The new cable however, when installed, doesn’t move the needle at all. Removing the Speedo, I can see the thing spinning so my connection into the gearbox is sound...

Removed ropey indicator and light switches and replaced. I know have full beam on one side, so the switch was definitely dodgy. Need to work out why only one side is working.

Can’t waste good lard

Doesn’t help me get the latch “closed” 😂

Sprayed it with what I had to hand (WD40 contact cleaner) and left for 30 mins. Did the job for now.

Had issues this morning opening the 90 in the cold. Opened it from the inside having got in the back, but the problem I now have is the lock is still inoperable and the door won’t latch closed (even if unlocked I don’t mind) Any tips or pointers on how I can sort this quickly?

I just popped out to the shop and I think it’s actually flickering brighter rather than darker, so definitely something up. A new switch could be an easy, cheap solution to try (if I can find a way to get my steering wheel off)
