1. Check the speedometer cable: Ensure that the speedometer cable is properly connected to the transmission and the speedometer. Make sure that the cable is not kinked or damaged.
2. Check the odometer gears: Inspect the odometer gears for any wear or damage. Replace any damaged gears as necessary.
3. Clean the speedometer and odometer: Use a cleaning agent and a soft cloth to clean the speedometer and odometer. Make sure to remove any dirt or debris that may be affecting their performance.
4. Lubricate the speedometer and odometer: Apply a small amount of lubricant to the speedometer and odometer gears. This will help to reduce friction and ensure smooth operation.
5. Reinstall the speedometer and odometer: Reinstall the speedometer and odometer into the dashboard. Make sure that they are properly secured in place.
6. Test the speedometer and odometer: Take the car for a test drive and check if the speedometer and odometer are working properly. Ensure that the speedometer is displaying the correct speed and that the odometer is accurately recording the distance traveled.
