If the speedometer is working but not the odometer it's in the speedometer it's self. replacing the speedometer cluster is the easiest their available on ebay or your local salvage yard.
what happens is the trip odometer wears and sticks, theres a small motor on a circuit board with a plastic sun gear, inside the speedometer housing. it drives both the odometer and the trip odo
the teeth strip off the sun gear and odometer stops.

What is the problem if the odometer of my 1991 Plymouth Acclaim does not work and I have replaced my gauge cluster Assembly multiple times and each time my odometer still does not work.
According to my findings your odometer is electrical and has a distance sensor down by the starter. Check the connections at that point for loose or corroded contacts. If you know how to use a VOM you can check the sensor also. But from the sound of it, being you've replaced the cluster before, if the connections are good at the sensor and its not working I'd check the fuses and then buy a new sensor.

I need to know what an average plymouth acclaim is worth.
It's all going to depend on shape, mileage, options , one owner, lady driven how well it was maintained, etc.

Take a look in (autotrader.com) and search for Acclaim's in and around that year, and that should give you a rough idea.

My 1991 plymouth acclaim went dead and won't start. I dont't have fire to the distributor?
I had the same problem with my 1991 Plymouth Acclaim 3.0 liter engine. Check to see if your SBEC (computer located next to car battery) has gone out. Replacing it should solve your problem.

Power windows and ac/heater went out.
Sounds like some major wiring issues', Does the Car not get driven much? If a mouse got in the engine compartment its very possible that they could've chewed threw the wires, Check the Fuses, and also the connections in the Fuse Block and at the connections to the accessories, then also check the relays, if nothing shows up either in the engine compartment or in the passenger compartment you will have to go through the wiring harness'

Most likely cause is the vehicle speed sensor located on right side of the trans near the right axle.
