1994 940 odometer and trip meter inop 900

Having had lots of problems (mostly solder related) with instrument clusters on my previous 940s and 740, I have been pleased with my current ride - The Goose. However, recently, both odometer and trip meter quit. All else works fine. I understand this is not a matter of my touching up solder joints, but rather a mechanical thing that is not easy to fix.

What to do? If replacing the cluster (non-turbo) is what I end up doing, who knows what other problems I may encounter?

Is it feasible to only replace the speedometer portion of the cluster? And if so, is the speedometer from a turbo cluster compatible with a non-turbo cluster? I hope so, as u-pull places near me have lots of turbo 940s, as would be reasonable to expect.

Thanks to all!

FYI: Dave Barton does not have the gears to repair the 740/940 trip odometer, just the speedo gears. I asked...

Cluster replacement is easy. Remove the bezel, the two Torx screws holding the bezel retaining clips, then the four screws retaining the cluster. Instructions are in the FAQ. Sometimes the bezel is tough to remove.


The speedometer can be easily replaced in the cluster, but I'd buy a cluster from the self serve wrecking yard and replace the whole thing. Yes, the NA and turbo speedometers are the same. You'll need and instrument cluster from a 1993-94 car.
