Broken odometer gear. It shouldn't be that hard to replace.

You could buy an entire dashassembly off ebay, etc. I think changing out the gear would be a lot simpler.

I'm the one who posted those directions. I'm not a mechanic and I did it myself. It's not near as bad as it sounds. Just pay attention to what I said to look out for. Mine is working fine after about two months.
