My odometer has never worked since i've owned mine. There is a thread somewhere on this forum that explains how to fix this problem by disassembling the instrument cluster and replacing the capacitors. I don't have enough ***** to try this on my own however i'd ship the cluster to a specialist who can repair it for a couple hundred bucks, maby less

I just sent my cluster off to a company in VA. The companys name is southern electionics. their website is www.caraudio.com
the tech called me today and said she was ready to go only cost 75 dollars. still crossing my fingers that this is the whole problem. i will post again when i have the cluster back.

The thread with the capacitor fixing is this one: https://www.rx7club.com/3rd-generation-specific-1993-2002-16/just-got-done-figuring-out-how-fix-fd-odometer-599220/
I wonder if mine doesn't need a bulb as well. I thought it was out, but if I look closely at it I can see the numbers they're just very dim.
Did the caraudio.com people tell you what they did, replacing capacitors or just a bulb? Either way, glad to hear it's working for you now.
