Learning as I go
My speedometer was working perfectly, until I disconnected the cable from the instrument panel so I could take the panel out. Now that I've put everything back together, the speedo doesn't work (odometer too). I've pushed the cable all the way back in as hard as I can. There is maybe a 1/8 inch gap between the nylon clip and the back of the instrument case, which I think is the same as before I disconnected it. Two questions:
1. What is likely wrong? Did I break something?
2. If I have to mess with it anyway, is it worth pulling the cable to lube it, or should I just leave it since it was working fine? The car has 78K miles, has always been garage kept, and is pretty pristine overall.
