ODO went out
greetings benzs,
My I have several instrument cluster problems. my clock has been out for some time(which doesnt bother me much), all the backlights have gone out and now my ODO/tach recently went out. The speedo, engine temp, gas and outside temp(c*) all still work. I have been researching about replacing a "little gear" that commonly goes out; any threads repairing my instrument cluster? I have a 1984 126D many thanks in advance, Enrique San Antonio, Texas

The W123 and the W126 are different. Try www.odometergears.com for replacement gears and instructions for the W126.

The W123 has a mechanical cable driven speedo, the W126 is electronic. IIRC most speedometer shops charge 100 bucks for a repair.
