Yep, they're electronic. The later 3rd gens use digital odos as well but if it's an early mechanical odo, then it's probably stripped odo gears as said before. _________________

That's why I said some LATER 3rd gens...the 95's and 96's I know used mechanical ones.  _________________

| I recently picked up a 93 Cav and the trip odometer doesn't work. How difficult is it to remove the instrument cluster. This is my first American car and I know very little about them (always had Volkswagens and BMW up until this one) |
