Re: [DML] Speedometer Button Question

[Josh Haldeman <jhaldeman@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Adam,

0. "Discover" the upside down seating position for the DeLorean, by 
sticking your head into the driver's footwell, then maneuvering your 
torso around the seat, and sticking your legs up either on the door 
sill, or the seat top.

1. Underneath your dashboard, there are six 7mm nylock nuts, four of 
which have huge wide washers on them.  Remove those (two front, two 
back, and two next to the steering column) and the binnacle will fall 
forward a bit. 

2. Reposition to "standard seating orientation", Lift the binnacle up 
and forward far enough to reach in and disconnect the two wiring 
harnesses from the back. (hard to see...just pinch the clips on the ends 
of the long sides and they should pull out)

3. Release the speedo cable by pushing and sliding the friction ring on 
it.  (Sometimes it's easier to disconnect the upper cable at the lambda 
counter...near the clutch/brake pedals)

4. Binnacle will be free now...turn it over and remove the 8 phillips 
head screws holding the instruments to the binnacle.

5. Flip the instruments over, and remove the screws that hold the clear 
plastic.  This will give you access to the bug.

For the trip odometer reset arm, you most likely will have to replace 
the whole speedo...but I have heard of a few instances where the arm 
could be repaired.  I've got a speedometer for sale...the orange paint 
on the "55" is a bit faded though.  Contact me privately if interested.

Thanks, and let me know if you have any questions along the way.

Cheers,
Josh
