Hello,

i spotted this cable broken in my engine bay by the BMC

At a guess i think its the speedo cable as the speedo has never worked since ive had the car... but id just like some confirmation

if it is where can i pick one up and is there a guide to replacing one anywhere?

Heres some pictures taken with my phone...




Cheers
Alex

older cars were cable driven speedos, not sure on the earlier rx7s though but i would say its looks like it,

that is something you should easily spot in the engine bay though how have you missed that!?

i havent needed to go hunting round the bay for problems cause there hasnt been any with this FC :2eek plus ive only had it a couple of weeks, all ive done under the engine bay is top it up with oil :)

fc is cable driven.
follow it down and see if it goes to the transmission tunnel.
