I have previously repaired my odometer multiple times. It currently has a relatively new set of gears (1 year old) and I have re-soldered multiple connections.
For the most part, it seems to have been working fine the past year. However, I have mostly been driving locally, so I didn't see this problem until just recently.
After a trip of around 140 miles, the odometer had only advanced 70 miles. That seemed odd, but it seemed to be working normally during the next couple weeks of local driving. Yesterday I made a trip of 112 miles, and the odometer only advanced 84 miles. The point in common in both these incidents was that the majority of the trip was at highway speeds.
During a portion of the journey, I was watching the odometer vs. the interstate mileage markers and it definitely seemed to be lagging.
Before I tear into it again, has anyone seen this problem before and found a solution?
