tripmeter/odometer

[Jerry & Jane <janejerr@bconnex.net>]

Thanks to Dave Head and Igor Kessel for the info: I'll dive back in to 
the unit. 

Igor; you said that you resoldered a connection on your board. Assuming 
that my problem may be similar to your's but in a part of the circuit 
that feeds the trip/odo, did you manage to get the faceplate and the 
pointer off? On my unit, the small circuit board has to slide up off the 
frame to expose the soldered side and the faceplate blocks that move. I 
don't see any way to remove the pointer without breaking it since it 
appears to be moulded onto the shaft.

Incidently, is it true that the tripmeter shouldn't be reset if the car 
is moving? 
Did I do this to myself?
