Odometer stopped working

Supposedly the bad speedometers, with leaking capacitors, we're from '91 to '92. But I have a '93 940 that was working fine until one day it just stopped. Pulled it from the dash and I could see rusty leakage on the circuit board. I tried to clean it up but didn't make any difference. Got a used one from the local pick-n-pull for $20. Or you can have them rebuilt for around $200.

Didn't know that. Since his is a '93 are they the same. And if his does work once in a great while then the gears have to be working and it's the electronics that are shot?

That's a common problem with our 240's as they age. One little gear decomposes and eventually breaks a tooth or 2. Instructions to replace and the part are available numerous sources for around $25. A DIY-able job; be sure to clean ALL bits of the broken gear(s)-otherwise you will get the sometimes-works and sometimes doesn't situation. And remember NEVER reset the odo while the car is moving- that's what usually finally destroys the gears.
