Re: [Chrysler300] speed-o-cable problems / 57 C

[yelof@xxxxxxxx]

The cable will always break at it's weakest point and that can be
anywhere in it's length.

Insert cable and try to spin the speedometer by hand.  The problem will
be self evident.  Every speedometer will succumb eventually.  The most
recent that I repaired in April was a 1964 Daren.  Removed speedo,
flushed bearings with brake cleaner while turning by hand until cleaner
ran clean.  Chucked a short piece of cable in an electric drill in
reverse to work in fresh oil.  Don't forget to oil the odometer bearings.
After, one spin by hand should deflect needle in the 40 MPH range each
time it is spun that way.
