Hmmm well the other day I pressed the mileage reset button on my dash when I filled up with petrol and noticed later on that my speedo doesn't move any more luckily I have my sat nav smoothed into the dash for a speedo for now but really need to get it fixed anyone have any ideas

Press the reset thing again, it's possible you've jammed one of the gears. If yours is a rev1 then the speedo will be cable driven - if hitting it and the reset thing doesn't work then it's probably cable related.

I jammed the counter in mine once by not pressing the reset stick all the way in. It clicked every mile I covered, but the speedo needle still worked because it was an electric one. I guess in the mechanical speedo it's all geared together so you only have to jam one bit and the lot stops working?

Yh the speedo and the mile counter have stopped the other stuff all works n it's a 91 so it's a rev 1 I think but mite be a rev 2
