Odometer Stopped working

I have a '88 Volvo 240 DL automatic and I noticed about a week ago the odometer stopped working. The speedometer is working fine. This is not good because the car is no longer keeping attract of how many miles I have on the car. Is it a wiring fault?

Re: Odometer Stopped working

It's not electronic, it's mechanical. They used nylon or plastic gear wheels in the thing, and it's routine for them to fail. Replacement kits can be found here:
