Default odometer stopped working

Any reason my odometer/tripometer has stopped at 133k but everything else still works?

yup, it's bad, you need to replace the spedometer head unit or send yours out for odometer repair

Mine stopped working and is odometer gear kit that will fix problem. Takes about one half hours with the beer break. Late Model Restoration Supply sells kit for about $40. Part #LRS-17255OG. Not diufficult at all. Bubba

if you wish to retain your current mileage, then fix it yourself, pull cluster and disassemble.

Is an electric motor that runs odometer inside instrument cluster in Sn95. Fox cars had cable. Pull cluster and instructions come with kit.
