Odometer won't display milage.

The box will light up but is blank. Any ideas for a fix on this. Car has no motor or ecu if that matters

If you don't have the motor in the car, you won't be able to get a reading - the odometer grounds through the ECU harness to the engine (weird, I know). Had a buddy who experienced the same thing, when he put the motor in and hooked up the harness, there was the reading.
