General Speedo Cable

[Charlotte]

Been reliably informed that Floyd needs this changing & have got a replacement. Can anyone give me guidance as to where it goes? I'm a bit lost til I get a Haynes manual & dont want to break anything!

Thanks

just be careful you dont pull any wires off behind the dash, or disturb any under the bonnet. When I did my clutch cable all my hedgehogs went to sleep and stopped my electrics working because I disturbed them... (hedgehogs being little electrical connector blocks btw)!

Make sure you follow the exact route or you could up with a failing speedo cable, it took me three goes to get it right and a replacement to replace the replacement. So follow the exact route no extra or spare length on the cables. even if you fit it wrong it will work for a bit then stop reading what a pain it was to sort out. Best of luck job is easy just take your time
