Speedo Not Working

[Guest gs fan]

My speedo has packed up . I've been reading some of the posts relating to this problem and from most of the problems it would seem that it's probably the stepper motor . I've been on the 247 spares site to see if they can supply one . If I do manage to get one can anyone take me through a step by step instruction on how to fit it ?? many thanks .

Ps : The mileometer is still working ,thats why I think it may be this "stepper motor"

yep its the stepper motor. remove the dashboard by inserting a couple of credit cards under the dash below the 2 holes at the bottom of the cluster. the stepper motor is held in place by 2 white prongs DO NOT pull them apart cause they will snap and youl need a whole new unit just gently aply a bit pressure to them and pull the motor out. to put new one in line the 4 metal contacts up and push it in. replace the dash by just pushing it in then the jobs done

Thanks for the quick response as usual. i'll depend on whether i can get the motor i suppose .

When you take the panel out is access to the motor possible without taking the instrument panel to bits .

Honestly its a doodle to do remove the black plastic cover and the motor is in front of you

Cheers , will let you know how I get on .

I wonder why they don't supply the stepper motor ?? I seems a bit much to have to replace the whole lot due to one part failing . I believe that you can't replace bulbs as they are LED's fixed into the circuit...progress not!!
