Can You Wind Back a Level 2 Cluster?

[VXHBD6]

Hey guys,

My VR has done 189,000 k's but I broke the cluster (well im pretty sure its broken I cant be bothered paying for it to get fixed when I have a spare cluster I can use) but the spare cluster has 208,000 on it.

Is there a way I can wind it back to 189,000?

Yep take it to a gauge repair shop be heaps of them in the phone book

[VXHBD6]

Yeah but I don't live in any cities mate so I was gonna try do it myself if possible?

[DannyboyDS]

ermmm, what part of your cluster did you break? might be possible to swap some bits over and around.

[VXHBD6]

The odometer man, but I swapped it over and I think it works now, ill take it for a drive tomorrow and let ya know.

Thanks anyway guys. :beer:

I wound back my L2 to suit my car. Theres probably an easier way, but I stripped the cluster and pushed out the pin that all the numbered wheels sit on, then re-assembled them in the order I wanted. The pin can be a tight little sucker. I 'pressed' it out by using a small screw to screw into the hole it sits in.

[VXHBD6]

Okay, can you take a pic of the 'pin' for me?Your talking about the thing that has the round teeth sorta thing on each number?

[azzfox]

Sorry dont have a pic. Did it a fair few months ago. And sorry I actually removed the pin that holds the little gears above the numbered wheels in place so that the wheels can turn freely. See, been that long I forgot already

[VXHBD6]

So you can grab which ever bit of the odometer you like and spin it freely? I'll definately have to try that lol.
