AE101 odometer not reading

[Dell'Orto]

Bit of a weird one - took the GTZ for a drive today (after removing the ignition barrel, what a PITA!) and found that while the speedo is working, and the trip meter rolls over, the odometer doesn't move at all. I suspected that the speedo may have been b0rked going by the carjam report, but appear it's just the odometer!
Anyone come across this before?

Those are electronic stepper motors and they have one for the needle and one for the odometer. It is possible for only one to stop working. My cressida actually had that fault

I've pulled apart older ones on diesel vehicles...

The trip meter is usually a slave off the drive to the odometer. it's odd to me that the trip meter is working.
Surprisingly easy to take apart and figure out what's gone wrong. PAP a replacement odo section and swap it out.

Yeah this is what I thought too, surely they aren't separate steppers for odo and trip meter. I may or may not recomply this car (depends what it looks like when I get it on a hoist) so its not super critical, just rather curious.

Yeah I miss read what you said. I had issues with the needle vs the odometer and trip counter. The trip and odo are off the same servo motor so someone may have tinkered in there as they don't usually break on their own accord.
