Default my car found the fountain of youth ?

My car stopped counting miles. Lol. seems like she found the fountain of youth and stopped aging.

No, but seriously.. what do I gotta change, or check, and average price to fix? I noticed yesturday that she had stopped counting at 168499.9 then today she moved like .9 more, but stopped again.

PS. if ya can't figure it out from my name... it's a 95 accord.

yeah, my odometer still works. When did yours stop aging goodfella?

I don't want to have to change the entire cluster for this.

You either swap one from a junkyard car (your odo will still be off.) or just learn to live with no real mileage count. At that high of a age it's your call if the repair is truely needed, after all the car likely still runs just fine and reports most of the data you likely need.

Does the trip ODO still work, you could start keeping a log every time you get gas to track the real mileage.

Default same thing here

the same shit happened to me. i opened up my gauge cluster and took a screw driver, rotated the odometer manually by one number, and it started to work again, i gues it just gets jammed sometimes.
