Trip Odometer won't work on my 87 IROC

Hello all,

I was wondering if any of you have a way to fix my Trip odometer, I bought it not working when I got the car and was hoping someone here could tell me how to fix it. It does move at all when I drive.

Thanks for the advice,

Shane

This is a common problem from pushing the reset button too hard (I broke mine when i was out of the cluster). Broken finger that holds the spools against the gears. I had mine fixed at a instrument repair shop.
