If your 95 XR7 odometer stopped working the most common problem is the plastic gears. They get so hot the surface shows bubbles that weaken the gears and eventually cause the gear or gears to break and the odometer stops working. The odometer part of the speedodometer has a small electric motor which drives a 16 tooth cam gear also called carrier gear (POD) which then drives a 20 tooth internediate gear which drives the odometer and trip odometer. These 2 gears need to be replaced. I also have a 95 XR7 and had the same problem and I got the replacement gears and did it myself. If you go to www.odometergears.com they have picture instructions and you can also order your replacement gears.
Defective electronic speedometer, and that is the straight answer from a Ford dealer technicain
Wrong answer. The 95 Cougar has a mechanical speedo/odometer. This is why sbus325 can't get a straight answer to the problem from a Ford dealer technician.
The problem is the nylon gear drive that turns the odometer wheels. Most experts will tell you to replace the whole instrument cluster with one from a wrecked car. Personally, I just live without an odometer and have doen for 7 years. Hasn't hurt me yet.
no it's electronic
