subiewonkenobi Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 I took the instrument panel out in my 84 GL today to pull the ECS light bulb, and in so doing, pulled out the speedometer cable. Now the cable isn't long enough for me to hook it back in, and then put the panel back in. It is only long enough to reach if the panel is all the way in, and I can't get back there unless the panel is out! Any suggestions??

subiemech85 Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 you can reconnect the cable after you put back the instrument panel and pull down the fuse panel, and stick your hand up there, also helps if you pull the large plastics from under the steering wheel area Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet82 Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 What Subiemech said! You can do it with the inst panel in place. It's not much fun but can be done. Shouldn't take more than a few minutes. Good Luck Glenn 82 SubaruHummer speedo cable's been off so many times, I now have low miles... 01 Forester Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subiemech85 Posted September 14, 2004 Share Posted September 14, 2004 I hooked it up, took longer to get the light so I could see fuse box still hanging down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
