trip counter sticking

Post by slowbus »

Hi all.
I have a 1990 1.6TD and the trip counter and kilometer counter are sticking intermittently (sometimes for a couple of days). Is there a common fault or remedy that anyone knows of?
Much appreciate your help in anticipation.
John

Have now rectified sticky trip counter. I replaced the speedo head with a second hand one I bought from T25 DIRECT
