We drove bus down to Bournemouth weekend before last, and speedo cable snapped about 10 minutes from home on the way back.
Had one in stock, which Don at Taunton Deane Commercials fitted this morning only to find the speedo has jammed solid internally (which is why the last cable broke).
He reckons he can free it up, but is going on holiday for a week, and can't do it till he gets back.
Anyone had probs with a bus speedo ? Do you know what they sell for, as I might look out for one at Vanfest !

Does that mean I can add you to our Cruise list for the friday PM or are you going for the day still?

Any hints on spotting splitty speedo's ? Looks like the drive comes out straight, whereas on beetles its angled, anything else to look for ?
Nick reckons they go for about £20, so not too bad, he had one, but sold it the other week :-)
Will probably look out for one at vanfest just in case, as may need to swap some bits between the two to get one working.
Also brake lights are now sticking on again, so need to start messing about with wiring again, which I hate - oh well, only about 20 wires under dash so I'm sure we will work it out eventually :-)
