My speedo cable is broken. Insides are missing. Can anyone tell me where I can get one and how much? Or does anybody have one that they will sell me?
Thanks Charles

Hi Charles
Why don`t you send your old one in and have a new one made.

Hi Charles.
Take the cable to a cable repair compony and they will replace the insides. I did repair mine a little while ago for R60.00 at V&N Auto cables in Boksburg. It is quick and you wait for the cable.
Regards.

The place we use say you must have the insides. Will try another place tomorrow. Don;t know about the top part but the bottom looks the same as on on a 1400. So maybe I can make a plan.

Automotive Cables in Boksburg can repair the cable
Several members have used them.

My inner also fell out. Take the whole cable to a cable place and they can make you a new inner. The ends just have to knocked square. When the outer is laid flat the inner should be almost the same length. My one was too long when i tried to fit it so I just cut it a bit shorter.

The end pieces and the length are the important things to make up a complete new cable. You should be able to get one made up.

My speedo stopped working tonight. Cable intact and turning. Looks like like it might be the speedo itself. Will look Tuesday what is the problem.

that's how mine started, ended up being the nut that holds it in the drive had cracked, which later broke off leading me to losing the inner somewhere on the n2
