Hello all.
A friend at work has an L registered mondeo (the one with the boot not hatch) (1.8)
The speedo has gone for a holiday.
It does not clock up mileage nor does it show the speed the car is doing.
He cannot afford garage prices so he will do it himself.
What things should he check.

The speedo on that model is cable driven, so the first thing to check is if that has broken. Ugly job to replace, by the descrption in the haynes manual.

Are there any other things it could be. I will ask whether it went gradually or stopped dead.

Hello.
Update.
I have spoken to my friend about the speedometer.
He says that one day last week it was wobbly (the speedo)
Then a few days later it would register 10mph when he was obviosly going faster.
All the other gauges work fine.
I doubt the speedo would be at fault so we will go ahead and change the cable.
