Broken Trip Odometer -- Any Ideas

[CHibbard]

Hi All,

I now have a broken trip odometer on the 94 LC. Push the reset button, nothing. Drive any distance and the numbers stay the same. The actual mileage odometer is fully functioning. Is there a replacement piece, simple fix, anything for the trip odo....? I searched the archives and came up with nothing.

Any ideas?

Thanks for the help,
Craig

mine started to act up a few months ago and recently stopped working for a short bit. Kind of did the jiggle handle routine on the reset knob and it started in again. I was going to ask about taking it apart as cleaning and lubing is all it might need.

There are no replacement components serviced for the speedometer head. If you do mess with it be careful 'cuz if you break something you buy a new head.

I'll make sure my glasses are close by.

Broken trp odo ....

I pulled the dash, sure enough, one of the little cogs are broken off.... I'm guessing that a new head is many $$$$, so I'll just get by differently. Maybe I'll try a make a little cog and super glue

CDan, thanks for the oxy sensors, amazing how much better the LC runs now .... feels like a new engine ..... I'll be calling you in the morning for the front end service items .......
