im 99% sure its just your speedo cable has snapped, easy to replace just get a replacement from ebay only take about 10-15mins to fit.

best way to check its the speedo cable is to unclip it from the back of the speedo and unscrew it from the speedo drive(next to the wheel) then hold the top inner part of the cable and try to spin it from the bottom inner part of the cable, if you feel it trying to twist in your fingers at the top its intact and working, if you can spin without it moving at the top then somewhere down the cable its broken, in which case replace it.

fuse is on the starter solenoid.. just for reference

to check speedo cable unplug from clocks then spin front wheel... if the cable doesnt spin then its snapped..

its a common prob.. saying that mine has done 30k miles on original cable.. just oil them regulary.

yep, as above, just to add if you take the cable off the speedo drive, put the inner part on a drill, look at speedo clocck, turn drill on, if the clocks go up its fine, also if you take the cable off from clock side and spin front wheel if it turns it works, if neither works from each end but the cable is find you can eliminate the 3 smile.gif ps yes fuse is on solenoid from 2004 onwards smile.gif looks like a car fuse smile.gif

or like mine the other day undo it from the speedo drive and give it a gentle pull and if its snapped the cable will pull out.

lol, if you pull it back through, put the circular bit lower, then where the metal bit is sat on the end of cable, get long nose pliers, grip the inside and turn them out like a mushroom if that makes sense, role the other bit back up then screw it in, saves getn another cable smile.gif

If your speedo cable isn't broke i would say the cogs inside the speedo have broke, i'm not sure if you can repair this you may just have to put a new speedo on.
