Last fall I sent my 32 speedo out to Rusty in CO and he repaired it. Put it back in the pickup and for about 1500 miles it's been working perfect. Good job. Yesterday I was cruising down the interstate at about 75 when I looked down and the odometer, the numbers had aligned and it was spinning freely around and around. The trip meter and the speedo needle were working perfect. After a few miles everything quit, no speedo? Will be interesting to see what he finds? First need to determine of the cable is turning, did it twist off or did the 90 degree adapter I had to use shoot craps? Hopefully Rusty can work his magic again. Could also be unrepairable this time? I sure enjoyed the speedo more than the Garmin I ran last summer.

Contacted Rusty, will send it to him this week for examination. It was working perfect after he repaired it. Something may have came loose? May need a replacement?
