Odometer Headache

When I bought the car odometer did not work due to a broken gear in speedo head.

I replace the head with a used one and it worked fine for a while. I took it back out and every thing seemed to be in working order. Put it back in and it worked for about 3 tenths of a mile and quit again.

I replaced it again with another used head. This work for about 1 tenth of a mile and it quit also.

The speedo works fine, all other gauges are working fine also.

Anyone with any ideas or a fix for this. I'm ready to pull my hair out on this one.

Thanks
 
wow! that sure is a headache. I'm not sure what to say but maybe dust is getting into it. Or maybe there is to much electricity going to it and its frying the odometer. So on that note, you may want to try replacing the speed sensor.

Good luck
