Odometer Issue

Went out in my 85 today and stopped for a coffee. When I got back in and drove road, after a few miles I realised the odometer had not changed.

Can someone help me with solutions?

Thanks,

Stephen

If the speedometer is working, then the problem is in the odometer itself. It might be unplugged. You have to remove the cluster to get to it.

There is a little stepper motor that makes the odometer go around. It might have failed.

The stepper motor in my 1985 failed. I went on Ebay and bought a used odometer just to take the stepper motor out and put it into my odometer. Has worked perfectly the last few years.
