The odometer was non-functional when I got the car, so the true mileage can only be estimated. However, based on service records, it must have broken recently around 87,000 miles. But its not just the odometer that is broken but also the odometer cable and it looks like both broke violently. The car came with a few extra instruments, mostly from newer SAAB 900 cars, but one cluster was out of a 1978 SAAB 99 EMS. Since the cars use the same instrument wiring loom, I was able to install the EMS Tachometer/Clock. I checked all the bulbs in the fuel/temp/idiot lights instrument and replaced two that had burned out. I installed the speedometer from the EMS cluster as well which shows the car at 129,457. I’ve been told there are ways to adjust it, but I’m not sure if I’ll try.
