Whilst out today the speedo just packed up??

Strangely the milometer and odometer are still working.

I have looked on the WIKI but could not see any info.

Any clues on how to fix this or where to start??

Dunno really, but if I had that problem I would take off the plastic cover over the clocks, unscrew the speedo cable from the back of the dial, drive the van along and see if the middle bit of it spins around.
If it did, I would spray it with some WD40 and shove it back in, if it didn't I would check the gearbox end.
If it span round and the speedo needle din't work I would try another clock.
This may all be a load of rubbish, but hey, it provides some activities.

Hope it works !

if it didn't I would check the gearbox end.

The speedo works off the nearside front wheel

Thanks guys I will try that and investigate further,

If your oddometer is working it would suggest that everything up to the speedo is ok. Sounds like that actual gauge is faulty.
