Speedo board question

Would anyone possible know what this blue "dial" in the bold red circle might be for? As I was dissassembling my speedo to repair the odometer, I think I moved it a little and now I'm concerned that I may have messed up some calibration of some sort. Any ideas?

Thanks a lot,

Ian

variable resistor which changes value when you turn the "dial".

It's most likely a calibration for the speedometer. Might have to drive around and see if the speedometer reads high or low, and adjust accordingly.

I just finished installing my speedo after replacing some bad capacitors...unfortunately now the speedo guage is reading 20 mph at idle and 60 mph at any speed. Guess it's time for a new speedo, eh?
