My speedometer quit working shortly after I had my Sprite back on the road after many years. (It is now waiting for the carbs to be returned from Joe Curto.) I just tested it by inserting a short piece of square shaft into the cable socket and spinning it with my electric drill. The wheel inside the speedo spun but the needle did not move. Shouldn't I have been able to get a reading with the needle moving? Assuming that the speedo is kaput I just sent an e-mail to Nisonger to ask for a repair estimate. Anybody have any idea what ballpark I can anticipate paying? Back in '65 I had the same problem and had it repaired locally. It has to be cheaper to get it repaired than to replace it and I see that neither Moss or VB even sells them.
