Odometer: Service and Repair

NOTE: When replacing a speedometer/odometer assembly, the law requires that the odometer reading of the replacement unit be set in order to register the same mileage as the prior odometer. If the same mileage cannot be set, the law requires that the replacement odometer be turned to zero. A label must be installed on the driver's door frame in order to show the previous odometer reading and the date of replacement.
