Upper speedo cable for Bx 1.6 petrol wanted

Post by cacaolat »

I would need the instrument part of the speedo cable for a 1.6 petrol bx. I am not sure if other ones would fit as well.

alternatively If you have one of these as a spare I could lend it from you and return it after a few weeks. I can pay you £10 for this. otherwise I will never get this speedo fixed.

I think I have a new one I bought in error. Will check and get back to you tomorrow.

Part no is 95638113 and it's about 18 inches long. Looking on the Citroen Service website has not enlightened me as to whether or not is suitable for your car. I'm looking for a tenner delivered to your doorstep so if you want to take a punt it's yours - unless someone can verify it is definitely the right one.

I'll send payment details by PM if you want it.

Hi
I have just measured my good lower cable, which is 24" long but I have 2 good ones of these.
I have also measured the broken and inclomplete upper cable, this one is 39" long.
So your cable is definitely not the right one for me.
The 39" is the one I would need.

I've recently sent my cable off to Speedy Cables, i'll measure the old one when it gets re-delivered (this week) and you can have that as a old one to send off if you like?

My old upper cable is the 39" one you require, you're more than welcome to have it, pm me with your details and i'll arrange to send it, can you cover the postage charge though, it only cost a couple of quid for me to send it to Speedy Cables.
