Hi all,
Could someone tell me why my speedo doesn't work please. There appears to be nothing wrong with the cable. I have unplugged it from the back...

What's more likely is that the nylon ferrule on the cable has moved up and the cable is not fully engaging in the clock. The ticking noise is the end...
