Happened to me before...

There is a cable linking your speedometer to the gear system (or the wheel?). That may be loose OR broken.

The mechanic should be able to change it in 20 mins...

Last time mine cost abt 50 bucks...

Thanks U so very much... i will go down to my mech to check. I hope its just a wiring.... and not the whole speedo spoilt. If whole speedo spoilt how much it cost to replace any idea?

[Guest calp]

Since the others are working and the speedo is the only portion that is not working, I doubt the whole thing has gone kaput...

And I have no idea how much the complete speedo set will cost... :-\

[Guest ehwwong]

in the region of $2000~$3000 original.

The cable feeding info to your speedo may have come loose / is malfunctioning for some reason as with what calp has highlighted earlier.

Individual meter prices vary - Speedo + odometer should be around $200-250 mark. If you're lucky, you may be able to find an entire cluster for the same price.

[Guest calp]

those prices are for the original cluster, right? Still scary for no digital/trip computer speedo... can't imagine the price for those w211

maybe you can get a 'used one' from propel auto parts (address somewhere in this forum:) )?

price would be lower I guess...

My W126 recently had the same problem with odometer only. Turned out that the gears were faulty.

My W124 TE has the same problem as you but I have not send in for repairs yet. Was told it is the meter cable faulty by my mechanic. Hope you can get it solved soon.

Cheers
