ok so i have looked everywhere i have an 88 pioneer 4.0L manual.... im trying to fix my broken speedometer. All the articles ive come across tell you how to remove it and change the gaer but no articles on how to change the speedo cable itself. i know its come disconnected from the gear in the transfer case.ive disconected the cable housing from the little bolt holding it to the underside of the jeepo ive me a little slack when re connecting it. i never removed the housing completely but jsut removed the speedo cable from the inside of it and replaced with the new one. How far does the cable actually come out of the end going into the gear at the transfer case. mine only comes out about an inch or so. i pulled another cable from the junkyard the other day they are exactly the same length. so im thinking
A. Either mines broken
B. Ive pulled another broken cable
C. The gear assembly is worn out wwhere the cable connects
D. I'm not doing something right cause it still doesnt work when i hook it all back up.
im thinking i keep pulling the cable out of the gear assembly in the transfer case when i hook it up. Also is it supposed to be really tight when it hooks up to the gear assembly so it cant pop out again... please help... its been 3 days of work for a job that i think should taken a few mins i tired to give as much detail as i could. ill post pics tomm. if it will help...:gee:
