Troubleshooting Speedometer
#6
SOLVED:!
oh, im not sure, never tried it. i can host videos, they are HUGE, my server will puke or worse, charge me big money, $5 a month now, no more....
a drill can be like 500 rpm or 3000. i have like 5 drill motors. some scream. and is an unfair test. (fast , slow is valid)

if the tires, spin rear, and the drive shaft pins, can be done by hand, keys in pocket. beast way with 2 persons.
then the speedo drive end, spins, both speedo gears (xfr case), and the not missing , speedo cable clip there, (funny thing on mine was stripped out) and the cable spins and at the other
end the end (top side) is still square, and person #2, grabs the end cable line, and tries to stop the cable, and can't, then all is good below. for sure, no guessing.

that leaves one thing. the head.
if the cable is square still good at head, then the odometer works, unless its gears are stripped out.

then the rotational energy shaft part of square socket drive. there. it spins , it has no way to stop spinning ever. (cable test passes above)
this shaft spins, and the magnet spins, there is no way for it not to ,ever. (at this point)

if the mag spins it the spins the CUP, it must overcome the needle spring and its friction and is the #1 all time favorite to not work, this friction, if more than the magnetic field allows.

i dont need a video ive had every failure mode here. speedo, it's guts, the cable and the 2 gears in xfr case. (im so sorry yours iS DOA)

the jerking you see, is the cup crashing. 100% SURE.
this is very very common. and you can hear it easy,

when the needle shaft bushing fails, worn to nothing this allows the CUP to go totally out of control and move in illegal angles.
and then the cup hits the magnet (illegal transgression of this air gap) and it goes nuts.

Classic bad needle bush.
