My odometer on my '88 300TE (W124) suddenly stopped incrementing last night. Spedometer is still working just fine. Is this likely to be simply a broken cable that needs to be replaced, or something broken in the instrument cluster that will require replacement? I have not had a chance to do more than notice that it has stopped working. Are there any quick and simple things I can try to get it working again?

I've gone through a couple spedometer cables on my '77 240D (W123), and when the spedometer cable went the odometer stopped working at the same time. Is this also the case on the W124, or are they seperate cables?
