93' 240sx Hatch, odometer stuck.. any suggestions?

[terrell]

hey guys. i'm new on this forum and i recently bought a great 93' 240sx(auto) and i already talked to the guy that sold it to me about this odometer problem i have. he's an old guy who is a mechanic and restores these 240's from all over the u.s. but, he said to just keep driving it and it'll kick in eventually but i just wanted to get some input form other people. the car had 95,600 sumtin on it when i got it then a little over a week ago it jumped to 95,999 and my trip meter jumped to 9,999. now it doesn't move at all. i tried resetting the trip meter and now it's just stuck on 0. any suggestions?, o and also i used the search button but didn't find any real answers as to what to do. you can also e-mail me at. o also my speedo and tach work fine so i don't think it can be my speedo.. but yea.. thanks![email protected].^_^

Drop the steering column, pull the cluster, check all of the connections in the back, if they are fine replace the motor inside of it.

k i fixed the problem, it seems the motor for the odometer was slipping or something. i just turned it for a while and it worked fine after that. thanks everybody or your input!^_^

Was going to say check connections, or I got a used one. Usually they go for 25-35. Glad it's working now
