Question 88 Regal analog odometer stopped working

Why did it stop working and who could fix something like that? Sorry if these seem like dumb questions this is my first time here.

your complaining? Some folks would love to have your problem!

Anyway, not sure how the analog works, but it could be internal problems, making you need a new odometer

I read something about this on w-body forum

I guess it is fairly common (I have an 88 with a broken odometer too)
There is a small motor that turns the gears of the odometer...I guess that is what fails.

The dash is fairly easy to take apart on the 88 regal. The odometer motor can be replaced separate of the readout (rolling numbers)

Your best bet would be to find a junk yard where you pick the parts, otherwise find out the part number and order a new part

I just said fvck it
